Judging from the question you don't know anything about internal combustion engines. I might suggest you do a little research on engines first so you can understand what the parts are in a engine, what they are made of and what their function is. After you have a basic understanding of the internals of a engine it might be easier to answer questions for you as to specifics of different wear metal combinations found in used oils analysis's.
