Injector Fuel plate damage

https://cimg7.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.die...2dab045c62.jpgAnyone ever seen this? These are 160/00 injectors that were just modified. This one has been throwing a contribution code until i took it apart and found the problem. I replaced the fuel plates and nozzle and all is good. Not sure what caused this?

Never seen it before, it appears someone did a bad grinding job. That is a channel that feeds fuel. I thought about grinding mine as a mod but had no extra parts at the time. If I may ask who did the injector mods?

But basically the injector froze up at wot. And i belive the high pressure oil had nowhere to go and took out the solinoid.
