A HUGE thanks to all who participated and endured this incredibly long thread 👍
I forgot to follow up. I did buy a package of three earth magnets and placed them strategically on the inspection cover in the area of the oil pickup tube.
I'm thinking after we put on 500-1,000 miles, I'll drain oil, remove the inspection cover to see if the wheel is there

No update yet, though you inspired me to snap a photo of the odometer just now ... I also took a photo the day after I posted the video of me starting the GLK up for the first timeOriginally Posted by NYCGLK

I have put almost 1,000 miles on it, with zero hint of side effects, which includes city streets, highway miles, and "get on the throttle to pass" at highway speed.
I'll need to order the inspection cover bolts before I remove it at the next oil change - they are supposed to be replaced at every plate removal, but I reused them when I bolted it back up.
