## Discrepancy

(CAN) WHEN ACFT WAS DOWN FOR HEAVY MX, MECHANIC HAD NOTICED THAT THE RT ENGINE HAD A CRACK ON THE PLENUM AROUND THE BLEED AIR PORT.  ENGINE WAS REMOVED AND FORWARDED TO THE COMPANY’S ENGINE SHOP FOR REPAIR.  PART WAS REPLACED AND ENGINE WAS REINSTALLED ON THE ORIGINAL ACFT.  THE TIME ON THE PART IS U/K DUE TO AT OVERHAUL IF THEY PASS NDT THEY CAN BE REINSTALLED.
