Does not look like it shares anything with the Cayenne...

Guys, this engine has nothing in common with the Panamera or Cayenne V8 other than they are both V8's. This is a 90 degree flat plane V8. This engine is bred for a race car. It is also 80 lbs lighter than the flat six originally in the car.

I would bet it is for coolant and oil similar to the boxster and cayman since there is probably no room for it in the engine bay.
