Default b18c weird knock

i was just driving normal and i heard a ping, then clack clack clack. so i shut the car off and got it home on a flatbed. i pulled the oil pan, nothing bad down there, pulled the cams out, no broken springs. then i pulled the head off and this is what i saw. dont know what caused it because there was nothing in the cylinder and it was only that one that has the marks in it. the plug is good. anyone have any ideas?

Looks like some kind of debris pulled a sneaky pete on your air filter.

yeah thats what happend. i pulled a chunk of that metal out of the head and it was magnetic. so i surfaced the head and put it back on and it runs great. i did make damn sure nothing could get sucked up in there
