Reuse this injector?

[ROCK HARVEY]

I’m doing my head gaskets this weekend, and ran into my first trouble when pulling the injectors. One of them came out in half, which stinks but I know what to do. The one I have a question about is this one. Is this a sign the injector isn’t sealed internally or something like that? Would you re-use this injector? I already know I need one, so should I just buy 2 new ones? More info: these are from Russ and they are only 2 years old. I would have asked him directly, but he’s on vacation until the 16th and I need the truck up and running ASAP.

I'd clean it up with a hand brush and reuse. You didnt have runability issues? Send it. Ive seen this type of buildup on a lot of injectors

The truck was running fine, but leaking coolant externally at the back of the driver’s side head.

I wouldn't sweat it then
