Does anybody know what this is? Found in the bottom of my transmission pan. It's been slipping pretty bad lately so I figured I would drop the pan and check for metal shavings and replace the filter and fluid. This is what I found. Also, is that considered a lot of metal shavings? Trying to figure out if she needs a new transmission or if I can still salvage this one....thanks!!

That transmission is smoked, regardless of what that piece is. Any real shavings is too much.
