Thanks for the advice guys -it has helped decide to just rebuild the old motor- assuming the damage is limited.
When I showed the oil pan to a local Porsche expert he proclaimed it was debris from a failed IMS. "But it has an LN IMS -fitted less than1 year ago",I whined. He was undeterred by the fact. I asked why a failing IMS would release non magnetic phosphor bronze-like swarf . He breezily suggested I have it flat-bedded to him. I didn't ,I just came here instead.Yes ,I am still looking for a Porsche engine rebuilder in Pasadena/S.California.
