FMIC Damaged

I recently purchased a ETS FMIC core used from a member. The FMIC was damaged during shipping. The inlet side has a gash with the lip slightly bent inward and the outlet has a slight oblong shape. I am just wondering if this will cause a leak once the couplers are on.

Pics? Did the seller put insurance on the package? Have you made a claim? Was it properly packaged?

you can take it to a metal shop and they can straighten it for you, if you decide to keep it

I don't mind keeping it as long as it can be fixed

since the lip is not heavily caved in i think ull be ok even w/o taking it to a machine shop. but you def need to use tbolt clamps and exteded rubber connector hoses.
