Default Can these heads be used for port/mill work?

They're 799 heads off my friend's truck - He gave em to me for free and I need heads after a valve spring broke in my car and took out one of mine (they were ported 241s the previous owner installed).
The damager isn't very deep, and they did have good compression when they were pulled off his truck.

Thanks LS1Tech
*edit* sorry for large pics - I'd resize em but honestly you can probably seem em easier this way

I personally wouldn't worry much except that one chamber on the right head. I wouldn't think that head is salvageable for a cost worth doing, but maybe an expert will feel differently.
