Seems like someone sending actual engines into other places where you can't legally buy it. For example, sanctioned country

Why not send the fake parts there if they are equivalent?

Because we live in a neoliberal hell scape where companies are glad to turn a blind eye to safety regulations if it means saving a couple bucks.

Yes, but wouldn’t the sanctioned countries be similar? It seems to me it was likely a scam to save many where they sold non genuine parts and pretended they were genuine, but evading sanctions doesn’t make sense.
