valve issue

So i was cleaning up my heads today before mounting them on the block and in the process noticed something that concerned me, these heads are new to me and when i got them didnt notice anything, however, if you look at the attached picture the exhaust valve on the far right is completely different than the rest of the valves. Now these heads have obviously been run this way since the carbon build up is identical to the rest of the valves. Can anyone forsee problems installing it this way or should i change it to match the rest?

Sorry, I never notice that. They should be fine he had no issues with the engine, be want to afermarket heads when you moved up to a turbo motor.

Again, if you feel uncomfortable using them I will do a full refund on the heads.
