Default driveshaft question, pics inside

When my rear end let go (pinion end of diff decided it no longer wanted to play with the ring gear) the end of the driveshaft thrashed around a bit and is now not perfectly round, I had to bang on a couple spots so I could get the bolts out. And it put a little rip in the dust boot on the inside. Do you think this will cause a problem? Should I take this to a driveshaft shop and have them replace the end?? Id hate to have a vibration due to this.

thanks

If its reasonable I would take it and see if they could make you a single piece with u joints but thats me. If nothing else, see if they can replace the boot and maybe try to balance it.
