Default Blox IM / Need to be replaced?

I apologize if this is the incorrect section but I spend all of my time in this section and know it gets regularly viewed.

I just purchased a Blox IM for my Turbo GSR build that I am putting together. Below are the pictures of how it was received.





I have a new IM gasket and when it is set against the manifold; a little bit of the gasket covers the "chip".......Think I could get away with this or would it cause leakage? It is no where near the runner opening.

The last pic is of a high spot where it sticks up a tad but is nothing serious.

Let me know what you guys think! (I have already contacted the company that I ordered from and I am waiting for a response)

Thanks in advance

as long as its not sticking out (which doesn't look like it), should work just fine.
