You wander countless hangars and repair bays in search of the station's head engineer. Eventually, you find him in a dim repair bay far from the living decks, grunting and sweating as he attempts to move an engine block several times his size. He doesn't seem to notice you approach.

Unfortunately it's not that easy. A Qtarian mining crew has decided that particular bit of salvage belongs to them, and they're making it everyone else's problem. If you can convince them to go away, I'd consider that payment enough.
