IMS seal material is rubber, not magnetic.. To properly inspect for damaged bearings requires an extensive inspection of the oil filter element as well as the engine's oil sump plate.
Taking your chances on the IMS is certainly your choice. Lots of people have learned that hindsight is much more clear than 20/20. As long as you know that up front, you are making a well informed decision.
