For the few quid a reamer costs, it'd be worth doing IMHO.
No bruising its all fine and in spec ,, im going to reassemble and see how it turns over on the bench if its easy and smooth I will fit head to bike and start it ,, but if it binds or ex valve sticks the I will have to investigate but my local engine rebuilding shop says its OK .
