Default 04.5 SP 700 EFI leaking axle seal+metal shavings

Well... another small problem with my 700 efi... Left rear axle seal is leaking....I did not want to drag the whole machine to the dealer so I bought the seal and replaced it myself.. Upon draining the oil I found that both magnets plugs were completely covered in metal shavings..really fine shavings..almost looked like anit-sieze. I have300 miles on this thing. Im wondering if there is a major problem with the rear gear box or if this is considered normal...doesnt seem right to me....I would be curious to know of anyone elses findings when pulling there fill or drain plug

I had my front dif blow out on my efi with 900 + miles on it....the cage inside went out along with the clutches....but nothing in the rear yet...

when you drained it was the oil milky colored from like moisture?
