It won’t be hard to find the planes these parts are associated with. Aerospace is hardcore about traceability. It’s not like people flying need to be worrying about the plane they are on.
Unless they’re being operated by Russian carriers 😬
They should not need to replace the entire engine, unless they are shop-level components. The airlines will have records for each part, and they should be able to narrow down what engines received specific parts from that manufacturer.

These are not the 737 Max. Per the article, these are older model planes.
Not again. Still.
