I see it as the values are quite a bit less than universal averages based on 5200 miles, which I believe would result in values for this change at 5200 still being below universal averages.

Doesn't this engine use a timing belt instead of chain(s)? That might account for the excellent iron levels.

Yes, it has a timing belt that actually runs through the oil in the pan and is good for 150K miles.

Engine appears nicely broken in. Where did the sodium come from, previous run of Valvoline maybe?

Nice catch! It did have one very short OCI of it when I bought it because even though it was a certified pre-owned Ford it spent its time new as a rental. I had the Valvoline and used it as sort of a flush until putting it on a diet of PP.
