Fox FIT cartridge marks

I pulled apart my Fox 36 TALAS RC2 forks tonight to replace the semi bath oil in the lowers.

I found the below markings on the black section of the FIT cartridge. Is this wear or is this just nothing? I'm assuming it is not wear as the diameter of the black section is a lot smaller than on the silver FIT cartridge so shouldn't rub on anything.

Any ideas? Any need to be concerned? Thanks

You don't need to pull your forks down to replace the semi-bath oil.

Just remove the lower legs.

Thanks I figured it was nothing but just wanted to make sure.

Yes I realised I didn't need to take the FIT cartridge out after I pulled it apart. Next time!
