My assumption is the example 1 would likely be successful with a civil claim and would be awarded damages... example 2 would not be successful with a civil claim and would not be awarded damages.
Having said all that, some people in this thread really enjoy "muddying the waters" attempting to confuse examples 1 and 2 for their benefit. Even if the VPD have "wrongfully" issued one N&O for VI to a 100% OEM vehicle it does not render their issuance of N&Os for VI to all vehicles as invalid (Especially those that are modified, even just a little...).

You can continue to make statements like "all aftermarket exhausts are illegal" or "all non-oem parts are illegal", but you are only making yourself look foolish, as there is nothing of that sort written in any part of the MVA.
Also your little flow chart is a VAST generalization, and nothing but someone with time and money is whats holding this issue up from going to distance in the courts.
