It would be very hard to prove. The impact that eventually caused it to snap could very well have been a long time ago, and it slowly weakened over time eventually cracking all the way through. Or it could be a casting defect. To prove it conclusively enough to get some kind of compensation you would most likely have to send it to a company that does materials analysis and see if they would do something like that. I've got a buddy who works for an oil and gas related destructive testing company, and it's the kind of thing they do but usually on a much larger scale for a much larger price tag.
