That's somewhere within the first few pages in emails with TRW, talks with ECS, multiple other companies/vendors.
they're a part that's taken off the line at random after testing, had the ///M ground off, and sold cheaper without the ///M tax.

You just wrote the exact definition of a factory second.
They aren't taken off the line randomly. They were taken off the line because they aren't up to spec. Just because you aren't aware of how they failed testing doesn't mean that there weren't determined to be not good enough.
