Straight scratches on rotor near apex

Straight scratches on rotor near apex
I looked at a potential used engine today. When inspected thru the exhaust port, I see the front rotor as being fine but the rear has scratch lines near the apex for all three apex of the rear rotor. Didn't bring a camera and so don't have a picture.
I grabbed a picture off zerox7 posting (hope you don't mind) and drew some lines (the white ones) 90 degrees from the apex seal to illustrate this. To be clear, THIS ISN'T THE ACTUAL PICTURE OF THE ROTOR.
Has anyone seen this before and what does it mean?

Are there thin grooves all along the rotor, running perpendicular to the apex seal? If so this is normal, I've seen FD engine with these before, I believe they're an older casting.
