1st Blackstone ?

Question is why would my copper be high @ 10 (univ average 3) all else looked good. Iron was @ 20 (univ average 22), all else was well below averages. Truck has 9500.0 total miles @ time of sample,with 3000.0 on the oil itelf. Sample was taken middle of drain and was hot. Could this be part of normal break in ? Or could this be from Powerservice grey additive @ every fillup and usually i add to much ! Maybe the fumoto drain contaminated the sample as this was my first drain with it installed (reaching i know). My next sample is due soon and i will drain from FS-2500 drain port. thanks

My copper was even higher than that on my first sample. It will come down as it breaks in. My engine took about 15k miles before everything was down in the normal range.
