If it is I would not use it. If that is chrome
flaking Id say your ok. Just my opinion.

that is a pretty big flake off in the first pic, you could use it but it will not produce as much compression as a good housing with minimal flaking.

in short, yes you could use it but if you can get your hands on one better i would suggest that.

it would build more compression with it in the original groove.

I'd find a better housing. I agree that it is usable, I wouldn't use it if it were mine.
