Had a similar one when I was a stude at Valley. Hole in front fus / avionics door, and took out some wiring e.g. AHARS or whatever it's called? Half seagull ended up in the avionics area and other half down donk.

IIRC boroscope engine, temporary patch, QFI flew it back a few days later, CAT 3.

I'm not sure that pitot tube is bent, just telescopic lens affect?

I would not call it a "massive" bird strike
