You ask to whom distributed you the "code", ie, in that case, Storex.
Whether Broadcom is involved or not is not your issue. Whether Broadcom
didn't provide Storex with the source code is NOT an excuse for Storex
to not fulfil the requirement of the GPL.
Since there is BusyBox and Samba, contact the respective projects.
