Cayman 3.4 engine into Boxster S 3.2

Fortunately the original IMS was perfect ( the P.O. Gave it to me with your tool). Your new ceramic IMS is also perfect.The P.O. fitted your spin on filter and a magnetic drain plug .The filter caught a lot of the rod bearing(?) debris. So I am hoping the collateral damage is minor enough to allow a rebuild.
I am sooo glad the P.O. fitted your filter conversion!

Here is a photo of the inside of Jake's filter can opened up for inspection. The solid bits are soft bearing flakes/debris. At the bottom the 'caramel swirl' in the oil is just fine gold-like particles suspended in the oil.
The drain plug had a big pile of black sludge on it that I speculate was moly of some form.
