Narrative:
Was notified by letter of possible discrepancies of engineering order X step 2.B(27)(B) and step 2.B(20) on B767-300 aircraft. As far as I know; the work was done per the pending airworthiness directive. I believe that after the job was completed and that while the floor boards were still up; there was work being done on the external power contractor that may have had an effect on steps accomplished.
