Default Normal after dyno tuning?

Dropped the oil after the dyno tune for the turbo install. Is this normal? Motor is a new gm ls3 crate engine with maybe 2000 miles.
Ive never dumped the filter into a separate pan since I’ve had it and I decided to this time. Just running conventional 5w30 for break in period (5000 miles) Cut the filter open and it has the same metal in it

If it's a spanking new engine, some FINE particles are expected. Part of breaking in....

yeah it’s a brand new engine from GM. I’ve changed the oil even when it’s not running and just sitting every 3 months so I’ve changed the oil 6-7 times haha but yeah I hope it’s just more break in flakes.

Thanks!
