Without looking at the data, I'd say very few of either were lost due to engine problems. They were both operated in very demanding roles which would up the ratio of CFIT to a level that made mechanical failure leading to loss a small portion. 850 hours gazelle and 3000 lynx without an engine failure, one incident due to tail rotor drive failure, that was maintenance error, walked away from that, lucky I guess.
