How 'bout just making magnetic plugs using the existing bolt plug. Center drill the bolt end and epoxy in a neodymium magnet. Having a metal lathe helps, but doable with a drill press. Make sure there's clearance for the slightly longer bolt (usually that's not an issue).

On my airplane, I'll put a magnet on the side of the spin-on oil filter. That'll attract small ferrous particles on the sidewall of the filter.
