Default Should i used chipped piston??

I chipped a small piece out of the piston skirt out of my PR3. Not on the pin side but on the extended skirt side. I'd say the piece is a gram. What do you guys think?? Should it be replaced???

What i thought. Yet again my machine shop laughed off a gram. The only good one around is near tampa. Last machine shop i went to was even worse.
