That’s a fairly large amount of wear everywhere for an engine with low hours. Most likely the bearings have been coming apart for a long time and all the debris has been circulation in the system causing lots of premature wear. Your filter is only going to catch the particles larger than approx 20 micron. Anything smaller flows right thru the filter media and wears your parts out. Unfortunately that still doesn’t explain the root cause.
