Default New Motor w/ metal shavings on drain plug

How long after a new motor build will all of the metal shavings work their way out of the system? its been a couple thousand miles and im still getting TINY pieces of metal on the drain plug. the amount is getting less and less each time thankfully

I never seen motor oil like that. The only metal I have seen is from rear diff.
