Its just a scratch!

Honestly, thats not going to hurt performance in any noticeable form unless there is a leak.

That's not bad at all......... I wouldn't even bother repairing unless you get a killer deal. An unfinished inperfect repair wuold probably have just as negative effect on performance as your little dents do.
