A head bolt snapped off when I was attempting to remove the head to do a headgasket and instead of drilling it out, I was going to transfer everything to another block. The one I have grenaded but looks fine other than this chipped off piece near the cylinder wall. Will it be ok or is the integrity compromised?

Smooth it off
That far down the piston rings will never get there and it is not big enough to disturb the piston skirt at the bottom of the stroke.

Thanks. I figured as much but I didnt know if it would be effected by heat when it warmed up or anything. I'll prepare for full send!
