Finally able to get back to this, the silver flakes were NON-ferrou, the magnet would not pick them up, I also poured the waste oil over a magnet and it did not pick anything up either. I am now suspecting that the material found is aluminum, the pieces were to small to photo, and there were only about a dozen spread across the filter when cut open, my plan is to wait until the weather gets warmer, drop the sump for a look inside, if nothing is found, I think that I will drive it 4-500 miles and pull the filter again. Someone suggested that what I found my be from the continual dry starts that these older low mile week-end cars get. Any one want to chime in?
