Needless to say I was more than thrilled after busting into my core trans to see all the gears looked new: teeth, synchros, bands etc. However I noticed metal hair (flake) on the magnetic drain plug and couldn't find out where it came from until I saw this. Looks like stress cracks of some sort on the pinion and one chip. Is any of this salvageable or are my pinion and ring junk? How does this even happen?
