We don't know how the engines are indexed on the seabed, Seabed #1 could be A/C #2, or vice versa. If the orientation is bilateral, #1 seabed and #1 is port, (same-o) then I would predict the engines have a relationship to water entry, but again, that has to include both WSW +/- ~15 degrees, and ENE, +/- ~15 degrees. That the flight to the bottom was 2.3 (miles), the demand is for nil current if one wants to conclude the line of debris is the line of the a/c's last moment in the air. The engines could have swapped, anything could be at work. I think it is a stretch to conclude the debris is the telltale of "Line". Besides, there is no way to conclude that any line above or below the surface has anything to do with controlled flight, and since the orientation is random by definition, how can one extrapolate a "finding" re: heading?? It can have nothing whatever to do with anything.

Captain Scott. OK. The line was either WSW or ENE, and since the a/c was completely ooc, that tells us exactly what??
That the pilots would abandon recovery to rollout on some "heading"??????
This a/c absolutely, abso-Freaking-lutely had a heading of 240 when she hit. What did the Captain have for Breakfast??
