I had this same problem on my M. My problem was a bad head gasket. It had blowed at one of the water ports in the gasket. The antifreeze seaped into the number 3 cylinder. Then it would slowly seap down through the rings and down into the pan. I didn't try to watch it in the act and I don't know if I could of because the seap had to be slow. But I could still drain 2 or 3 table spoons of water out of the pan depending on how long I let it sit. I tore the head off carefully to not destroy the gasket anymore. Took gasket off and investigated. Sure enough, I could see where it blowed out. If you don't know what to look for on a gasket, you might want to have an experienced mechanic take a gander at it. I don't know for sure, but I am putting my dollar on it being a bad head gasket.
