is this an abnormal amount of metal shavings on magnet?
after owning my car for 25k miles (has 110k total) I decided why not change the rear end fluid since I've never done it before, just in case it's running low from years of use. opened it up and found quite a bit of metal stuck to the magnet. no large chunks, just more than I expected:
didn't really know what to look for but didn't see anything obvious:
anything to worry about? I guess 110k miles of use has its normal wear, just don't really know what's considered normal

OP, I wouldn't worry about what you're seeing on the drain plug, especially if you don't see any gear damage.
