Marzocchi spring guides

[sideshow]

I have just started to dis assemble my 81Jota forks and I noticed the creases in the top of the spring guides and what seems to be a cut in the flared bottom section.  Are these anomalies from fabrication or are they from age and use ?

Any help appreciated.

Any fork genius?s about ?

Just rough-arsed manufacturing. No functional disadvantage.
