Name these parts.....
Yesterday I drained the oil to drop the engine out and found the following pieces on the sump plug magnet.
What do you think they are? Prize for the correct answer.....

Really sorry to hear that - finding chunks like this is not fun.
Its hard to tell - these are all metal pieces, right? The larger pieces almost look like the edge of a oil seal, the the middle one a piece of ring or something. The one to the right - its all twisted up?
You have shut down the engine right? What it running right before the oil change?
Cheers,
Mike

Looks like piston ring to me.
Someone one on the 964 board just went through this and it ended up being debris from a previous issue. $5000 later after taking the engine out and apart only to find no problem other than a couple tight valves.
