Sometimes it can be bent a milimeter and it will f a lot of stuff up. Your best bet is to take it to an independent shop and see what they say. Hard to tell from the pics.

The first picture you attached does show what seems like a crease in that member. Does their report give anything more specific than "bent unibody"?

Not sure if you have received your answer by now, but yes your frame is bent. that lower frame rail will have to be replaced. this could easily involve pulling the motor and removing suspension to access the part to properly replace. beware of any shop that says that it can be repaired. that needs to be replaced 100%. over 10 years in the collision business here.
