Just what are we defining as unsalvaged in this case. Are we talking strictly leaving it alone without touching it what so ever OR just not rebuilding the SDF-1, but still do reverse engineering of ship's technology? The first case I have a hard time seeing happen without a pretty good reason. The second case I see as more plausible.

In either case if the Zentraedi arrived (Legioss brings up a good point) they likely would follow a similiar pattern as before upon arrival and likely would secure the wreakage of the ship. How easy it is depends on if Earth did any reverse engineering at all with the crashed ship. How much time they had (do they have a functioning grand cannon). Is the Main gun Boobytrap even functional after the crash? After securing the ship, they likely would leave and follow the hands off directive concerning micronian worlds (unless its a long drawn out affair resulting in similiar actions from the show).

Weather they recover the PC Matrix depends on if Earth left the thing completely alone or what was taken from the wreakage for reverse engineering (if we are going that route). If the Matrix was removed, the Masters would come themselves, possibly with Zentraedi assistance for a second round.
