IMO, most are in an area that will not be an issue. I would be concerned with those in the O-ring channel, as under compression in the installed position something like that has the potential to cut or ***** into the O-ring itself, which could initiate a split.
If I didn't want to send it back, I'd dress it with jewelers or small files after removing the O-ring.
When taking out my old engine's set of injectors I noticed a lot of gel at the bottom.

I am the 3rd owner. The person I bought it from said he had all 8 replaced and they are all remans so that much I can believe.
5 out of 8 injectors all had this jelly like material and had their seals intact. The other three, all on the drivers side, had their seals smashed and deformed with one injector (#6) with partially obstructed screens.
