I had asked the same question but for my 2002 525i (where the thermostat and plastic housing are a single unit).
The answer came back emphatically "no" (by all whom I asked who should know).
But I don't have a clue if the 97 528i is similar so the question needs be answered by someone else. Sorry.
See: BMW oils, lubricants, sealants, & thread lockers (pdf) (gif).
