It is not at all unusual for either a magnetic drain plug or a FilterMag to look rather ugly at the first oil change. These engines have very fine debris that circulates in them (too small for the filter to catch) that show up when a magnet is introduced into the system.

I would not be overly concerned, but I would check to see that this level is less at your next oil change.
