Japanese media are reporting that the Ministry of Transport investigation team have reported that there is a possibility the fire began in the RIGHT engine following a fuel leak in the pylon. A ground engineer reported seeing smoke and a large leak from the right engine and advised the crew to evacuate via the interphone.

Looked like the left engine by the ealier photos/videos.

A good collection of photos is available at http://kyushu.yomiuri.co.jp/news-spe...hoto/index.htm
