#2 engine?

Take a look at the photos, #2 engine appears to be in surprisingly good condition.
Pay attention to the nose cowl and fan blades, I have been invloved in the aftermath of several bird strikes from a maintenance perspective, quite common to replace nose cowls and fan blades, and this on engines that continued to run quite nicely.
I find it hard to believe that this engine had an encounter with Canada geese.
