Took the oil filter out and drained rest of the oil out as well.
Very little dust type of metal in filter housing. Like very small pieces of chrome cover...? Did not remove oil sump cover yet, but no metallic particles game out with the oil. Will let it drain completely first before removing sump cover.

So still no clear picture what has caused the damage.
But obviously engine need to be put in pieces....
Can it be rebuild, or do I need a replacement, I don't know?
Engine housing should be possible to weld and fix, but what other damages there might be inside....

All ideas are very much welcome!
