I'm not too sure what part of the hydraulics is doing this, my first thought was a gear or airconditioning pack issue.

position sure doesn't look like engine related. Whatever let go had a lot of heat in it, the components that hit the ground are still glowing! don't see that from major kitchen appliances... pack ACM have a fair amount of energy, can chomp right through the fairing with ease.
