1984 3.2 head damage

Not sure how or when this chip out of the edge happened, but is this damage terminal? All the other heads are in good shape.

Sounds good, thanks. If I happen to stumble into a few hundred extra bucks maybe I'll consider replacing it with a good used one (if I can find one) just to be optimal.

The sealing surface is in the Carrera cylinders and the nick is outside of the seal.
