i think those groves are to help direct air flow. i've seen it done in engine blocks and its meant to work well when done correctly. i could be wrong though

Yes the ports have a bit of machining from the factory at the opening. The ducars I have seen have been opened out wide in this spot but then use a way undersized gasket and block the flow. | simple compressor...find a nice g clamp and have a look at a real compressor and then! look at your angle grinder...itll make sense  worked on my old postie a treat
keep that intake roughly finished while your there...
i also have tried an alloy gasket(go the bundy rum!!!!!!) but intentionally made the hole too small...trim this dag into vanes, that get the air to spiral as it flows through... tricky part is...which way to twist them?

The ports of my 150cc road-legal bike look just the same, guides ground off, and no problem after 5000km.
I may have smoothed the intake a bit too much, yes.. It just looks good like that  . It is still far from a mirror finish. | ive tried really hard to have a look inside my intake while actually running the engine, and for some reason, i cant do it  ie, who cares what it looks like when its bolted together? its how it improves performance that counts...
