George,
 
This engine has 500 miles plus about 50 hours in the aircraft.  The wear is not measurable but there is some.  If you look carefully at the photo you will see some spots that are still shiny, different color.  So I did not grind it enough to reach these spots but I figured it is enough for the purpose.  Not much was taken off.
