Specs of debris in oil filter

Hello,

When I did oil change on my Boxster(2001 S 33,000mi) last weekend, I cut open the old oil filter and noticed a couple dozen specs(~2-5mm in size) of debris. They were mostly black and seemed to be non-metallic (none of them attracted by a magnet). I read somewhere that says they are most likely from timing chain guide that’s made of plastic. Should I be concerned? Any help is appreciated.
