Default glass bead blasted my s2 manifold...fail?

i had my endyn hand ported intake manifold glass bead blasted at my machine shop. when i got it back there is small pits on the cylinder #3 intake port divider(looking thru throttlebody) the pits are where it seems the divider had been somewhat knife edged. Should i worry about this and ditch the manifold and purchase another. If there will be no performance/reliability problems with it being like that i will keep it. Its just a sore sight whenever i look at it. will try to get pics up but i dont have a camera that can take a picture down the throttlebody hole and show the problem.

i'll try to get pics but just think tiny caves that look like they interlink but never fully pertrude to the opposite side of the divider.
