could have blown the head gasket from all the over heating have it checked out for piece of mind rather than get worse and do more damage

it cud be a number of things more details wud help is the water mixing with the engine oil look for a white scum on ur oil cap no.2 ur water pump cud be gone / is both pipes going to the rad getting hot it also cud be a crack head and the water won't mix with the oil and burn off in the chamber the earlier e46's were know for doing it

after carefully reading this question i am forced to conclude that your radiator has had it and you need a new one. you say mark 4 so im assuming thats and E46. Take it to you local BMW dealer and ask them to fully check your cooling system.
