Rusty, try taking a magnet to some of that stuff.  Its great for sorting out alum/rubber from steel/iron.

Hi Dave,
 
I didn't pick up anything on the magnet, so at least I don't think any of the ferrous metals were rubbing.  The bearing coatings would be non-ferrous I believe, so they wouldn't show, unless that was the glitter in the oil.   I'm going to get by the freezing hanger sometime today, because I'm dying to know what's in the pan. 
 
Cheers,
Rusty (stand by)
