Sounds like Pat has the answer.
If you get that at the next 10 thou, it maybe a worry.
SHims, Bearing cages, Bushings, Syncro assemlies and sometimes shift forks all need to wear in a bit so a little is fine but big chunks of metal I would worry about.
Mayby have a look at it in about 1 or 2 thou and see how it's going and maybe change the oil again to flush out as much as you can and keep a close ear on it for any tell tale signs of wear but it is pretty normal.
Tractor trans do the same but in most cases it is half a cup or so of filings in the bottom of the case and then none for 5000 hrs or so or until someone breaks something.

Either way I would be interested in where from or how.

SubscriberI'm getting those at any oil change. A bit of wear is always encountered where moving parts of metal meet. So I don't think it's reason for concern, Inc.
