Sadly, drained the oil and nothing came out but ive driven it for around 100kms and no issues so far. Will probably change the oil again in a few days just to be safe until my mechanic is free to pull the oil pan. He did say there shouldn’t be too big of a problem bit better safe than sorry

Consider the size of the drain. When you say "fingernail," I wonder if the fragment is too big to come out the drain. Either that, or it's just laying in the bottom of the pan, minding its own business.
