Default Wear on Front Brake Wedge (A-2050)

Please see the attached photos. Are the indentations along the rolling face original and or is this part severely worn? Should I replace it or keep it?

I'm doing a complete brake overhaul, including new drums, linings, pins, rollers, actuation shafts and bushing. It doesn't seem to me that the function of the wedge is strongly dependent on exact dimension, since wear will come out in the adjustment, but I don't want the rolling surface badly misshapen.

Thanks. -- Brian
