CF6 inlet cone spinner anti ice

from memory the shape of the CF6 spinner, deflected F.O.D. and birds away from the inlet to the N1 compressor and down the bye pass duct.
I think the spinner was anti iced by breather air going into the spinner and then down the inside of N1 shaft to exhaust at the very back end.
