The best things to do are to take pictures of the shiny stuff, and see if anyone can identify it visually, and the other part is to put it into a sample container, and send it off to someone who can test it, to see what its made of, like Blackstone labs.

Since it's attracted to a magnet, its ferrous, which means its made of iron.
So, we are probably going to guess rings, cylinder bores, cam chains, or crankshaft, since I believe everything else in the motor is mostly aluminium, or some other alloy blend.
