Default Are these stock rockers shot?

I cleaned up these rockers pretty well, and noticed that the pushrod cups have some grooves in them. Are these things shot? You can see the far lef tone looks ok to me, the other two have some grooves in them.

Is it just me, or does the center one looks like the cup is enlarged a bit? Hard to tell from the pics but it does look like the scored ones have more depth to them.

Yeah I think that they have been enlarged a bit, by the push rod grinding away material. Im ditching the ones that look like this and getting some replacements from a friend.
