B7200 metal shards/gummed up hst filter

[North Idaho Wolfman]

As you can see there's quite a bit of metal. I'm hoping for the best here, but it sounds like there's no way of really knowing until either something goes wrong, or I do my next oil change. I don't know a whole lot about these tractor yet, but if I do have an issue here would it be likely to be a pump failure? Thanks everyone.

The most likely failure with that sort of metal would be the HST not the Hydraulic pump!
