Is there an accual groove in the metal or is it just a clean line? Cause all I see is oil stains. Mine looked similar. I sprayed brakleen on it and with a stainless steel brush it came clean. Try that and see how it looks then.

its a groove. I'll just use one of the low mileage S14 heads I have at the garage and not risk it.
