Is this piston OK to use (Picture of the nick)

This piston is perfect in every way but once it was cleaned you could see the nick in the picture. Not sure what happened but it is more like a chip. No damage to cylinder and all looks but I wanted a second opinion.

Aaron, you brutal bastard! It looks like you'll use anything. I wouldn't let you near anything I own.

Next thing you know, you'll be welding a bolt in a wrist pin.
Perfection is always the goal

You Sir, need to step away from all power tools and any innocent hydraulic presses.

I sense a few inside jokes between Henry and Aaron...

Thank you for the comic relief.
