Does this imply everything else has been done, including the accident engine completely removed and sent to where it was needed; inspections and other repairs (if needed) done?

And out of curiosity, the 3-engine ferry with #4 completely missing, is this mostly a (big) "paperwork" problem OR there are difficult structural and/or balance issues?
