Engine modifications - what is allowed?

I have been reading over on autosprint's website that Red Bull and Ferrari have asked (and been granted permission) to change aspects of their engines 'related to reliability.' My question is how the FIA distinguishes between changes that affect performance and those that affect reliability? Surely there are many changes that can affect both reliability and performance. And since we have not yet seen an engine failure on a Red Bull or Ferrari, how can this be justified?

Am I alone in thinking that these rules (besides the fact that it is full stop stupid to freeze engine development) would be difficult to police?
