Except, unlike the head/rocker, the part where I scratched is the barrel/head which is responsible for keeping all piston compression  .
My only luck is that it isn't all the way till the end, but only just. Won't know until engine is in the bike and I can do a compression test.
Don't think it's deep enough for JB weld but there's definitely a small groove that is very noticeable with the finger.
