Off a 99 Camry. 280,000 miles. My first cut open.

What is this in my oil pan? Toyota 1MZ-FE - Some additional information on the metal in the filter.

Oh yes that would be helpful.

4,500 miles. Installed Jan 4, 2017. Changed oil early to check out the metal / crud situation.

It is metallic in the filter and non metallic in the bottom of the can. Pic of the metal in the other thread.
 
That definitely caught some crud. Looks like it did a great job. Nothing wrong with FRAM in my book. Thanks
