Rather than “putting staff through such an experience,” just designate this engine inspection/repair as a volunteer (I don't mean unpaid) maintenance action. There are many folks in society that frequently deal with this type of fatality aftermath; e.g., police, fire/EMT, doctors, restoration services, etc.
