Looks like a 777 engine not a 747.

Fan blade disintegration took out the engine shroud and hot section of the turbine and then fuel leakage and fire from the hot section. From the video the fire was rather small as I am sure the pilots shut down fuel flow to the engine. This was just residual fuel I would suspect.

I welcome a comment from a heavy metal driver on this.
