At this point, with your warranty running out, I’d dig in with the dealership and ask them escalate your case. Worse case scenario, at least all this was fully documented before the warranty expired. Good luck, hope it resolves positively in your favor.
I dropped the car off with 30 miles left on the warranty (With the filter with the metal in). The Service Lady said if the Engine Tech see the metal in the filter, we can order a new engine.

I guess the tech is blind. Still said no metal in the filter.

The metal was in the filter when I dropped off the car. Going to the dealership after work to show the tech.
