New injector plastic tips?

Im resealing most of the upper engine, all intake gaskets, valve covers and all new injector o rings. I bought all new o rings for the injectors and one new plastic cap piece that was busted. After i cleaned out all the holes really nice and put the injectors back in, all the plastic end caps cracked a little. Is it goona matter that they are all cracked besides the one? I just dont wana spend 5 bucks a piece on new ones if i dont have too.

Heres the one that was busted..

Personally I would spend the money and replace the tips, It is a rather cheap price to know that they wont chip off and caause possible damage to the engine.

Just mu $.02

nstueve's Injector cleaning thread, or the RJM injector service page?
