Arguing about whether WS-10A-B-C is 100% Made in China is petty. As long as China can still made WS-10 engines in house without the fear of being sanctioned by another country than is good enough. So what if maybe some non crucial component parts are imported due to financial reason. If you have the ability to replace those parts with made in China parts when needed than "100%" or not is just semantics.
Don't you think it will be funny if China declared F-35 is not 100% made in America because it used some screw and rare earth metals from China? China recently sanctions Lockheed, Raytheon over Taiwan arms sales. It will probably cost U.S more money to build future F-35, but it won't be able to stop U.S because it's replaceable, just more expensive to build only. Same logic with WS-10 engines.
