[[[I just noticed there are small pieces of plating flaking off of my
dipstick.  I have a full flow system and a magnetic drain plug on my new
motor.

Problem?]]]

YES. You have small pieces (plural) of plating entering your crankcase! For
the small cost of a cheap good used dipstick, why take the risk of ANY
plating falling into the case and WISHING it doesn't cause any damage before
it gets to the filter??? Eliminate the issue!
