You ever hear of oil filters?

Have you ever seen what you can pass THRU an oil filter?

Not much. Mostly soot.
I used to change the oil on my sprint car once a week, and cut open
the filters to check for "Glitter". There is a purpose built cutter
for that. Changed the sparkplugs weekly as well.

I do own a microscope, the kind every doctor used to own.

Depends on the filter just what will pass through. They sell five
micron filters for fuel, but I don't know about oil. Below a certain
size particles are harmless. I am sure the filter makers know what is
needed.
