At the very least do regular oil changes and replace your oil drain plug with a magnetic one. An oil analysis after the oil change may not be a bad idea either.

I was going to replace the Oil filter to see what it looks like, but just made the appointment to have it done instead.
If your oil change is not due, it can't hurt to just replace the filter, tear it apart and visually inspect it for metallic particles..
