Guessing those are part of an old broken turbo. Pieces went down the drain tube.

Ya iv went over the engine Components time and time again to see if iv missed anything being broken. The car did have a new turbo so I think you may be right.
 
Definitely failed turbo bearing pieces.

Clean out your pickup tube and oil drain assembly. If you have an external oil cooler, clean it thoroughly as well as the oil filter housing.
 
Turbo thrust bearings. Not much to worry about if the current turbo is still functional. I've fished those out of several 2g oil pans. T25s don't like it when you slap a mbc on them and crank them up much past stock.
