Metal shavings inside plenum
That engine is blown sir. Possibly a rod knock that said no more.
Those metal shavings are parts of piston/valves and heads, this happens when the valves get destroyed, nothing stops them from from entering the manifold
This is why the engine wont turn, you'll need a new engine.

I suspect the galley gasket failed resulting in too low oil pressure, which destroyed the crank bearing and the piston smacked the spark plug and head.
If you have a G37, you really need to have an oil pressure gauge to prevent this.
I'm sorry this happened to you. A failing oil galley gasket is just about the only bad thing about the VHR engine
