Take a big look at the severed torque links, and a peek inside the IPLP cave. Does one see the remnant of NGV1LP?
It looks like a Stage 1 LPT nozzle vane, hanging down, to me.

You can also look at Figures 8 and 13 to see more things.

In Figure 8, you are looking at the Stage 1 LPT blades, the stator in front of this is gone.

In Figure 13, you can see the gas path vanes that are part of the frame the plenum joins to. Also, you can see the peeled back casing that was above the IPT rotor.

The main engine mounts did a good job retaining the engine on the pylon.
