The boss actually spoke to the German pilot and one surviving member of the groundcrew also confirmed its existence. You are correct on the use of Russian copied engines, the reason that Tony heard about it was because they were looking for replacement tyres. I haven't seen any photographic evidence of it though, but it does seem very possible to me and Tony (Mr Bianchi that is) is very certain about it.
