I would have thought metal would be magnetic. He explained it was babbit material, which is not magnetic. He also said that babbit would ball up and turn to goo just like it did. as much material as there was in that filter, he couldnt believe the car ran good before i parked it. He's not a porsche guy and had no clue what an ims bearing was, but said it is bearing material, and if ims bearing is what fails on a porsche then odds were thats the remainants of an ims bearing.
