It is my impression that 2-stroke engines don't have oil filter.

So where do the metal filings (wear off from engine parts) go? Do they get
ejected out the exhaust?

Bits of piston, ring, reed valve, power valve, yesterday's copy of the
Times - anything and evertthing gets chucked out of a stroker's exhaust.

If you blow them up thoroughly enough then bits will end up in the inlet
tract as well - when I killed my LC I found one circlip in the reed
block & the other in the spanny.

Only if they have an oil base. Most don't. 2 stroke Detroits have oil
filters.
