The starter shaft/gear teeth look worn to me on the ends, or is this normal? No issues with the starter engaging the flywheel, but I don't want to wear out my new flywheel prematurely. Does this starter look ok, or should I be looking for a replacement?

I'm new to Porsches, but the picture looks OK to me. It has to have a small bevel on the teeth to help it engage with the flywheel teeth. If it doesn't have burrs on the teeth and isn't rounded off, I'd say it was OK.
