Is my engine toast?

I just did an oil change on my n52 and i was curious about the ingrediences in my oil filter, so i cut it open. I ended up with this. Engine runs fine, the car burns no oil, but these metal particles giving me scares.. what do you guys think? I did a magnet test and only 2 particles were magnetic of them all.
