Shawn whilst it may look a little rough; there doesn't seem
to be much wear as the champher appears even all around. It
looks like it may have run a little lean of oil at some time
in he recent past. but I' d be inclined to just clean it
with a little solvent and then smear with oil. As long as it
turns freely but not slackly when fully torqued up it should
be fine.
A reasurance check (assuming valves not yet in head )would
be to fit one shell at a time so that slackness could be
checked. Final proof of pudding would be to assemble engine
and crank over to check for even lube-ing.
