A magnetic oil plug will have a beard of powdered metal.. Engines wear out. When we have Odd noises it's smart to have a look at the oil. If the metal amount is high, then finding out why there is a noise gets important. Aluminum can add a sheen to the oil. Drain the oil on a mower that is minutes from throwing the rod,,it's all silvery..
Now, if you haven't been around the motor long enough to know what is normal Old Oil, then a slight increase would not be easy to note, but, things rubbing and banging?
