RETed will become famous soon enough
Yep, got a lot of those when buying used housings from previous owners dropping them.
Just make sure the bottom (to oil pan) and sides (to irons) surfaces are flat enough so sealant can do it's job.

Got the dremel out last night and cleaned up the dents and dings. I also cleaned the housing to iron contact surfaces and the housing to oil pan surfaces. Used some 400 grit paper with a sanding block so all the surfaces would be sanded evenly. Did the same thing with my front cover surfaces.

I also decided to polish the logos on both housings. I've never polished before and want some practice. I'm planning to polish the lips on 2 sets of vert rims. Hell if it goes well enough I may even polish my intakes??? I doubt I"ll want to put the work into all that...but you never know.
