[C320-list] Engine Pod Cracks

[Jon Vez]

Warren,

Although not the primary reason, I did have these symptoms as
well--primarily around the engine shutoff.

I just noticed that the engine pod has 2 or 3 cracks in it on the curved aft
edge leading forward, as well as radial cracks around the engine shutoff.
Has anyone experienced this?  Is this the reason for replacing the pod?
