I had to replace the BS170 in my QMX and got a bag of BS170 from a friend that he bought online (China?).
The orignal BS170 for the QMX has the pinorder D-G-S but my new BS170 had S-G-D.

I would be very suspicious.
I've never known anyone say genuine BS170s have different pinouts.
Be careful, failed PA transistors can damage the driver and also other components.
