Default still good? Cam gear got a metal bracket wedged in there for a few seconds

basically a metal bracket got loose in between the cam gears and caused the intake cam to scrape on the inner side.

I'm wondering if this is alright to continue to use or if it would end up impacting the timing belt. It's not that sharp if i run my fingers across it but it doesn't have the smooth coating as the smooth side.

Thanks

i would take it off and smooth it out and make sure its not galled up. I wouldn't use it but i don't think there would be a problem.
