Please copy me when you send the pictures. I never realized that BGA heatsinks could cause these issues. I figures the experts that designed BGA heatsinks made sure they wouldn't decrease reliability. As a contract assembler we would assume the failed BGA was from either the BGA mfg or something in our process and therefore repair as the board under warrantee. How would I look at a cutomer design relative to the heat sink used. They  pick the size and shape for heat transfer because only the customer knows what the final system and thermal transfer properties are. We just assemble the board using their required parts.
