Default Stuff in oil

Hi all i have been hanging out here for a wial as a guest but needed to post now to ask some questions..

I just changed the oil in my newly rebuilt engine, it has ACL bearings and ceramic wesco pistons, now after a few startups trying to get a few things sorted out, i thought it would be a good idea to change the oil before it drove.

When i drained it *cheep 20w50* there was stuff in it, at first though i was like, O CRAP started a few time and a bearing is buggerd already, but i figured if a bearing started to spin already there should be some steel in it also, i went all though the oil with a magnet and it was cleen, and there dos not seem to be anything setalling out of it eather, now is this anything to wory about, or could this be just stuff comming off the sleaves and some of the ceramic coting on the pistons comeing off that i am seeing and everything is all right, when she first fired at 1100rpm i was getting about 70psi oil presshure right off the bat, and about 28-30 when hot..

Am i beeing a bit paranoid or is this something to wory about...

I tryed searching the forum but could not find anything about this.

Thanks in advance for your input..

Worst comes to worst, you could send a sample to Blackstone for analysis.

I was wondering on the 20w50 as well, a little bit aggresive on the oil. I agree too pics will help to know what your dealing with.
