Oil Pan Debris. Beginning of the End?

The delivery man brought my EBS oil pan baffle today. Yeeeh.
So, with no time to waste, I started working on the pcar.
As I dropped the pan, I saw my life flash before my eyes. Just like when you know you're not going to make the turn.
Well... I see five little pieces of debris in the pan. It looks like it is plastic and has dark brown color.

What could it be?? Should I start burial arrangements?
The car has been running fine. It is driven hard and I don't hear any abnormal sounds.

2001 M96
66K Miles
LN IMS Single Row installed at 63K
Using Motul 8100-Xcess 5W-40 since 60K, not sure what PO used before that.
The car gets autox'd regularly. No track days yet on this car.

Sorry for the crapy focus

Not Metal. It looks like plastic.

At a glance, no abnormalities.
