## Discrepancy

(CAN) DURING FINAL APPROACH,  THE PILOT HEARD A ENGINE SOUND ACCOMPANIED BY A GENTLE A/C YAW TO RT AND A STRONG ODOR ON THE FLIGHTDECK.  BLEEDS WERE SELECTED OFF AND ENG NR 2 ENGINE OIL TEMPERATURE WAS NOTED RISING, FOLLOWED BY A LOW OIL PRESSURE WARNING AND ENGINE SHUTDOWN.  AN UNEVENTFUL SINGLE ENGINE LANDING WAS THEN MADE AT DESTINATION.  TROUBLESHOOTING IS FOCUSING ON A FRACTURED FUEL HEATER BRACKET WHICH CAUSED AN OIL LEAK.
