If the cranks are genuine and new but one can’t obtain them from JLR through the normal supply chain...... did they “fall off the truck” or something?
Of course Occam’s razor would suggest that they’re not genuine only advertised as such?
Just saying, if it’s too good to be true sometimes it is.

Hello:
I see everyone very concerned about the photographs of the product that is offered on ebay.
I am going to clarify many of your concerns:
1) This product is not unknown, on the contrary it has been on sale for a long time, even on ebay it is offered at a much lower price, that is, the price of the publication is very high. It is important to be careful of the main code: It must be 9X2QBA, since 9X2QAA is also sold, of low quality.
2) Regardless of the origin of the product, it seems that I understand that it is used in the short blocks supplied by LR.
3) Regardless of its origin, this product is used for several years in repairs in Russia, by the "RUSSIAN FATHER" of these repairs: Dmitry Malofeev, who owns the company "dedmotors.ru" (apparently he also sells it ).
They have repaired nearly 1000 LR vehicles, and the most interesting thing is their "3 years or 70,000 km" warranty. This company also has a YouTube channel, where there are many videos on different LR topics.
In addition, there is a lot of information on different topics and many photographs in the Russian club lr-club.com, in which Dmitry presents himself with the pseudonym "SVERLO".
Here's something:
http://lr-club.com/index.php?showtopic=163360
4) Finally, I can tell you that the mysterious manufacturer until a while ago also manufactured the crankshaft for the 2.7 engine, of which you can still find some offers on ebay, code 4U3QAB, (it is also distinguished by similar laser codes on the head).
Regards
