Let me say this:
The engine is manufactured in one of the 50 States (this I can prove in about five minutes); however, it's twin the I-6 is manufactured in this place and in MI.
The engine castings are produced by at least two different suppliers, depending on the requirements (sales of the engines). One of these places, also casts Toyota engines that are used in the Lexus as well as some Toyotas.
The cylinder heads are not actually casted, since they are manufactured using the lost foam method.
I'll be honest, not sure who manufactures the pistons, rods, bearings, camshafts at this time, but easy to look up.
The only thing I can think of that would surprise you, or make you post a message than makes it appear it is a place people won't like, is that you learned where some of the engine blocks are casted. Again, if it where I think you think, this place also produces Toyota engine blocks (probably other companies too), and yes, they are the big ocean.
