From the picture it seems like a truck toppled over and hit the engine cowling on A6-END.

I'm not allowed to post links yet, but there are pictures of the damage on a planespotting account for ISB.

A replacement 773 (A6-EMT) was dispatched from DXB.
In this case, what happens to the crew who were supposed to fly back the aircraft? They obviously went back to DXB on the replacement aircraft, but where do they stay while waiting for the aircraft?

ISB airport is a terrible place to stay for a few hours. No airport hotels, unless they were driven to the nearest one which is 8.5 km away.
