I cut my filter ends off and unrolled it. I didn't have the metal bits like the op. It did however, have little amber/brownish bits here and there. Maybe 1/2 dozen a the most. I've read somewhere on this forum what they might be, but can't remember????

The amber/brown rubbery bits are excess gasket material. Generally not a worry.
