Default Port matching to head ?

Hello happy Father’s Day I wanted to know if it was worth it to port match my Holley 300-130 intake to the head. The top of the cathedral on the head left a mark on the intake showing where it’s blocked is it supposed to be like this or can I have it ported ?

You would think that going ahead and port matching would improve its performance but maybe it was designed like that for a reason.

Don't do it. The indent on the head is where the injector injects the fuel. Look at a stock (or injection) manifold. Right above the port is the injector. LEAVE IT ALONE.
