Looks like turbine housing cracked, then coolant went out exhaust. Low coolant level sensor did not work. Operator caught the rise in temp, shut it down. Temp alarm never sounded. The other turbo cooked too and possibly the crossover pipe and manifolds. Mechanics are still tearing into it. 40k is if it is just turbos and crossover. If engine took damage, then the sky is the limit.
