As of yesterday, 10-04-12, Reuters is reporting that GE has located the problem that disabled the 2B GEnx on the 747 in Shanghai, Atlas.

It appears the LowPressure Turbine nozzle was installed incorrectly. No damage forward of the nozzle, and the incident seems isolated to this occurrence.

I apologize for not linking the story here, operator malfunction.
