Metal in Oil after seize

After my 1970 BMW R50/5 seized, I took off the oil pan to find it had a great lot of ferrous metal pieces in it. The bike was in great up to date shape. Is there anything in my cycle that would supply such thin metal during a seize, or was this vandalism.

Metal in your oil means broken internal parts.. If the engine seized then that would be a sign of engine failure.
