Narrative:
I was the inspector on engine cfm 56-3, when the engine came through the ZZZ engine shop. I do not remember this particular engine, since we have so many through the shop. According to a copy of the maintenance records regarding engine buildups, I was the inspector. As a normal procedure I look the engine over on receipt and have never seen a duct loose from engine case.
