I was at the Ridge Motorsports Park the other weekend when this happened to me:

After getting it towed home, I pulled the valve cover and oil pan. I found some metal in the oil pan (see the attached picture). I could not see any damage inside the bellhousing after removing the inspection cover.
So far I think that something let loose in the valve-train. My next step is to pull the head and inspect further unless someone has a similar experience that points to something else.
