Question Did I screw up? - 13B Iron fault

Hey everyone,

I was porting my center iron today and while doing the eyebrow, the grinder accidentally jumped on the bridge and barely nicked it just a tad. I had gorilla tape over everywhere, and while peeling it back, it revealed the nick.
Is this iron toast now? I'm not too sure as this is the first time this has happened.

I can only hope she's okay... I only feel a little shot down.

i would make sure that doesn't catch the seal, and run it. since its basically in the intake port, and not anywhere there is compression, its not going to effect anything.
