Can there be chunks of band material in the filter without water being the issue? Can just the hard shifting that was going on make that happen? Can i drain the trany lines and pressure test them relatively easily? What do you think my next course of action should be? Thanks!

You'll definitely need to flush the cooling lines out. If for no other reason than to get all the junk out. I'd pressure test the radiator for sure. A radiator shop can pressure test it. If you don't have one, now would be a good time to add an auxiliary cooler.
