Try that with your auto insurrance carrier some day
Fit a new (identical to the original, same weight and warranted) wing?
The wing is going to be fixed in situ in Singapore,

The pontiffs of this thread may argue the merits of this but this is the reality.
I would suggest the only thrashing out being done is who is paying the bill.

As to much of the theory regarding engine faults and vibration the cause.
I suggest you steer away from conspiracy and think incompetence the cause.
The recent oil leaks are from engines off the shop floor. Nil further leaks found after fleet wide torque check of oil tubes.
