Tylermonkey, look at 3D computer image on the next page of where you found that picture in the updated preliminary report. (The one with the pieced together conical housing.)

The breach in the ring is at the 4-5 O'clock position, with the forward suspension bar being at 12 O'clock.

Coincidentally(?), the breach was reported to be in the 5 O'clock position on G-REDL's ring as well..
A breach in the circumference of the bevel gear support plate at the approximate 5 o’clock position, matched the location of the vertical split in the epicyclic ring gear.
