WA housing condition??

so im doing a rebuild and i wana make sure that all my parts are up to par to me they seem like they are in really good condition, but then again i have never done this before. there are no grooves or anything, some weird dark spots, but thats it. i havent given it the old wire brush treatment to see if i can take those burn looking marks off yet, im not sure if thats a good idea or not. so wha do you guys think about my housings!?

They look like they are in average condition for 80-100k mile housings. There is some uneven wear, but from the pics that you provided they are usable. Do not use a wire brush inside the housings, just use some decent degreaser and the carbon spots will dissolve.
