Particle shards under valve covers
took the valve covers off and found some broken up small pieces of plastic in there! Looks like something has exploded but can't work out what it could be!
any ideas?

Had a quick look on Jegs and yes the Stem Seals do look like they could be the reason for the particles. They are black and would probably form a cylindrical shape about the size of a skateboard bearing.
It seems like they may have been there for some time, however the remains suggest that it's just one that's exploded. Are there likely to be any catastrophic consequences having run the engine or is it a minor problem?
