RE: IMS problem?

Hello,

Recently, found a large oil patch under my 03 boxster, I believed it to be a RMS failure. I removed the oil pan and found a lot of metal debris thinking it must be a IMS failure. The interesting thing is the car runs well and idles perfectly, it will only leak oil (a lot of oil!) when it is turned off? The other puzzling thing is I found a small spring and ball bearing in the sump - does any one know if the IMS has springs? Any ideas what it could be??

Thank you all in advance
