would drain the oil and see how much metal comes out.
clean thoroughly.
refill fresh oil and see how it goes ,i would hope its ok if you haven't done many miles.
add some magnetic diff plugs as well

yeah only done about 200m on it like this at low speed.
Will clean it out and get a replacement cover as well just in case, this is nafff.

What do you guys recommend flushing the diff out with ?

And yes the drain plug is a magnet one, i was surprised it there were no shavings on it at all. Got da 110 TD5 2001 Smile

brake cleaner or similar solvent is all you need.

if the plug doesn't leak when its wound in i wouldn't swap the pan.

200mtr at slow speed and minimal metal loss you should be ok
