Default Mystery Metal Shard on Oil Drain Plug

Was changing my oil the other day on my 2005 Chevy Express with the 5.3, pulled out the drain plug and there was a half fingernail sized piece of hard metal attached. No other pieces or shavings were found in the freshly drained oil after running it through a sieve.

Anybody have an idea as to where this piece shrapnel came from before I start tearing things apart?
