Not too likely that you will find any damage on the shaft. It's a lot harder than the sprocket due to its thermal treatment. You sometimes get damage on the shaft but that's afer using cheap ill fitting sprockets on dirt bikes for a long time (sand, dust and lube grind in the gap between shaft and sprocket).
After the first circlip pinging off and me almost seeing my a*** I kept a close eye on the circlips and did not have further problems until the company sold the bikes.
