Default Could this be a problem for spray?

I had my heads and intake all ported and prettied up a couple months ago. I'm thinking about spraying the car but I noticed a pic of the heads, which I didn't catch prior. But goin down the runner right before the valve is a small spot of j-b weld which I asked the guy who ported it and he said that he cut though into the other runner. It doesn't look to be that bad and the car has ran great the last couple of months with exception to the rain. Some reason the picture won't upload on here, but it is smaller than an airsoft BB. Should this give me any problem if I do spray it?

Thanks, Adam

As long as it's sealed up, you should be good....but, if it dislodges and ends up in the valvetrain or in the cylinder...could be painful.
