Default Mystery metal chunks

Friend was changing oil in his 30k 2013 stock roadglide and found some pieces. I can't identify the pieces and pulled the cam drive out and everything looks perfect with no debris. Not sure maybe looks like something stamped, any thoughts about what this is from. Going to pull pan and check then decide if I m splitting cases. Mike

Are they magnetic? Was there any fuzz on the magnet?

This was the motor oil drain plug and not the tranny or primary.

Is there any knocking or other abnormal noises coming from the engine hot or cold?

Did the guy ever do anything to the motor? Lifters? Pushrods?
