They are not "new" engines.
It sounds like you're looking at imported J-spec, used engines.
Like with anything used, you take your chances.

They comes out of junked cars.
Some of these cars were wrecked due to accidents.
Some of these cars blew their engines - that's why they were junked!

...then...

These motors sit around, sometimes outside in the rain, before they get shipped over to the USA.

...then...

These motors sit around, sometimes outside in the rain, before they get sold to some schmuck like you.

You take your chances.
"Low mileage" don't mean jack when rainwater gets inside the engine.
Yes, that's right - some of these engines sit outside in puddles of water.
Don't be fooled by the super clean look just by eyeballing the engine on the pallet - these engines have been pressure washed and sprayed with clear coat (paint) to make them look really pretty.
