Bear,

In takata's third picture, are the two "plates" at 11o'clock and 1o'clock the pylon mounts?? If so, then the engine lifted back into the pylon, and the plates punched through the Stator??
My answer is no from what I can see. There are some other features of the fan by-pass area that may have folded back and that is what you are seeing and calling plates. I can't tell for sure but I think I see one of the yoke to platform links (rods).

Also, we actually don't know what the N1 speed was in the end.
