Just helped remove a 1.7 today and this is what came out of it.
There were probably 4 push rods that had varying amounts of this wear. I could make a guess at what caused it, but this end was seated in the lifter. Just curious.... anyone want to guess?  |

That looks like one "spirited drive" away from becoming 2 pieces
