When I drained my newly broken in trans oil it had a nice shine from the break in - I wouldn’t use it in my diff - I don’t think any filtering or sieves are small enough to remove the metal. The reason we are changing it is to get rid of the fine metal particles that will act as a fine slurry to wear the parts down. I’m not a chemist or oil person but I bet you can call Blackstone and get a definitive answer from an engineer there. If you call them, post up their answer. I’m curious as to what they’ll say.
Did you see he shine in yours? I had shine in my newly broken in rear gears as well. Dumped that too.
