Subject:drain plug is magnetic??

Does anybody know if the Syncro tranny oil drain plug is magnetic ( to draw
out the metal particals)?  Since its 2" above the bottom of the pan I
wondered if you could just place a small magnet at the true bottom of the
pan to better collect those particals, (and maybe fish it out now & then to
clean) ??    But I guess if those particals were brass they wouldnt be drawn
to a magnet anyway!

Keep changing that oil!!   Peter '87 syncronaut
