Default BBK Headers

I bought BBK 1 5/8in jet-hot coated shortie headers from Summit last week. I am worried about the ports on the passenger side header. Where the primaries are welded to the flange, the actual weld is very sloppy and I'm worried that this might effect something. The drivers side welds are perfect. I took some pics so you guys could see. This is the passenger side with the crappy welds:



This is the drivers side with the good welds:



Please let me know if it's worth the hassle to return these and try to get ones with better welds. I'm not going to try and grind it out because its only spot welded on the other side and I don't want to risk breaking through, then having a leak and I also don't want to mess with the ceramic coating. I have only mild mods so I think it probably won't matter now but I am worried for down the road whenever I decide to rebuild the motor and put higher flowing heads and a cam in. Let me know what you guys think. Thanks.
