re: batch of faulty castings in France

Group LPF looks to be the supplier.

"The LPF Group is a historic partner of Snecma (Safran)."

"Our site at Savigny has an independent unit dedicated to the development and prototyping of engine parts. We are partners on the new LEAP and Silvercrest programs."

There's no mention of 3D printing on the page, just machining of forged and cast blanks.

In the "Assembly" section there's a photo of a technician working on a CFM56 5B or CFM56 7B turbine disc, maybe that disc is the same for both, and it looks like one of the low pressure discs. The CFM56 engine is used in the 737.
