That's a terrific picture of the engine! You can see the 12 o'clock position facing the camera --their sling is hanging it from it's 9:00 -- and the fwd eng mount quite well... [*edit*Clearly*] it appears** the bottom forward half of the engine took the brunt, pulling the forward mount down, shearing those mount bolts and pushing the aft upper portion of the engine upward... Can't see what failed there, because the aft mount is gone.
