It appears that I was worried about nothing. It looked like cracked retainers late at night when I was finishing up. It now appears to be the flat part where the valve springs begin. These are pics from exhaust valves #2.

I'm sorry if I caused anyone trouble, but I do appreciate the post replies and the help from everyone!

Thanks again...........
