I may be wrong but this guy had something attached to the engine and it blew where the bolt on was.. I may be wrong but I think that is the story.

Nothing
It was a modified engine(not sure what was done by it). The guy took it to the dealers, but as far as I know they did not pay for it, because of the mods.
