From the relevent Flight Manuals:
(classic)
CHIP (Engine 1 or 2)
Reduce power and shut down engine as
soon as practical to minimize engine
damage. Land as soon as practical.
(412EP)
ENGINE CHIP (ENG 1 Metal particles in engine
or 2) oil.
Reduce power and shut down
engine as soon as practical to
minimize engine damage. Land as
soon as practical.
You would need a very compelling argument to contravene the RFM.
The S76 RFM (from memory)
Eng Chip, back to flight idle and IF necessary, bring it back up on short final. (Obviously if any other substantiating evidence exists, shut it down)
A much more practical approach I think.
