BrakeMotive Caliper Defect?

I ordered rear brakemotive rear calipers. Can someone take a look at these pictures for the housing on that first caliper piston housing?

It looks like the casting on the housing for the piston is dented in and compressing the seal on the left side caliper. Housing seems a bit thinned out too. The last pic is the right side caliper and that seems perfectly round.

I imagine I should get an exchange? right?

they are sending out a return label and swapping me out. Normally I wouldn't bother dealing with ordering online stuff with core returns, but they seem to be making it right.

pretty solid customer service
