I'm going to call fake.
Pictures look like something has come into contact with the blades while moving & thats why the engine is removed. Straps could easily be to stop if freely spinning while on the ground & mangling someones arm.
I don't doubt companies are skimping on repairs, I know someone fairly high up in Qantas who refuses to fly Qantas for this reason, but I doubt anyone would fly with that engine.
