Like the wheel nuts/studs of trucks and some Ford's - Left hand thread on left hand side, right hand thread on right (in NZ anyway!)
Funny to watch a new tyre tech struggle and wonder why he can't get the nuts off....usually step in before he stretches the thread or snaps a stud

In the words of Charlie Brown 'Good Grief'.
It really does look as though the cowlings are what hold the engine in place and they've simply let go and deposited it on the tarmac, oops butterfingers/cowlings!!
