I would for sure replace the engine oil after a couple of thousands of miles for the first time.
May be overkill, but a fresh engine shed a lot of particles from all those rough surfaces. And it can't make it worse to get those particles removed as soon as possible.
Surely, science have come a long way from when the 92 saw the light in 1947, but we are all reminded every day that one soloution that worked cherry for years have now been "redesigned" and fails in alarming numbers.
AND, the engines are put together by humans, maybe the assembly line are more tired one day than the other and doesn't clean everything that well.
For the little cost of that one extra oil change, and maybe keep the engine running for thousands of miles longer. The choice is easy for me.
