As detailed in the Requirement Document effective from 27 April 1995.
It has been determined that a lack of running clearance may exist between the referenced stationary No.3 bearing aft air/oil seal and the stage 1 HPC disc bore. There is a potential for contact between the two parts in service which will result in rubbing/scratching of the disc bore forward corner. Such damage could lead to an uncontained failure of the disc.
