oil filter investigation

As always when i change oil and filter I cut the oilfilter element open and flat it out on a bench.
This time a lot of small non magnetic pieces was found. Thin pieces about 2mm long.
Should i worry about this? Chain tensioner pads?
Oil ( mobil 1)was changed after 4000miles this time. New oil is Royal purple 10/40
Probably just imagination but engine seemed to run a little bit quieter after exchange.
