I suspect the doughnut in the front is a shield to prevent air being forced through the compressor.

I will ask.

There is a protective cover put on the leading edge of the nose cowl and also the compressor inlet. This is due to FOD damage and also to streamline the airflow a little better and reduce drag. Also the compressor cover is to stop the inner turbine from turning as there is no oil lubricating the shaft and can cause damage.

I think that the mods would agree that it should be noted that we refrain from posting anything related to CHOGM aircraft movements? As you can see above the leak is being taken seriously and so it should.
