Drain plug magnet cracked.

I noticed a hairline crack in my GReddy oil plug, right at the base of the magnet.
It wasn't over torqued, it spun right off easy with my box end wrench.
I tried a google search of the forum and didn't find anything. Anyone else ever encounter this problem?

Not all that common but it happens every now and then. Get a new plug.

Great, I just got the Greddy one for my new Z. Oh well, no big deal, if it breaks I get a new one.

Honestly from my oil test reports that I got back I didn't notice any faster then normal drop off in iron levels during break in and the iron levels are still in the average range, I also use a filter magnet. I don't think I would spend money on them anymore.
