If there is a bushing at the other end, then I am all but convinced the shavings came from one of the IMS bearings. One would think that the installer of the LN bearing would have noticed such a thing and cleaned things out or something along those lines.

No matter which one it was, it's not going back in the car as I have a new bearing. My real worry at this point is how to effectively clean as much of the flakes as I can, hopefully without doing a complete tear down.

Yes, they shavings/flakes are ferrous.
