Default Metal on the magnet

I was doing my annual oil changes (a little nuts but I change all annually) and noticed a couple slivers about 1/4"-3/8" long and maybe about .020 wide by .01 thick stuck to the primary drain plug magnet. I have seen a little fine grind on it, or on the crank drain plug, but don't remember seeing these small slivers before. It's a 2010 Ultra Classic, 103 kit running synth 20-50 in all. Have shy of 17000 on it, averaging about 4k a year. Appreciate thoughts on this, maybe what to look for. Thanks.

Take a look at your compensator, that would be my first guess.

The splines on the clutch hub would be my bet...
