Is this kink normal on FFR power steering rack?

I just started my build today....took the power steering rack out of the bag and noticed one of the lines has a kink in it. Is this normal or does it need to be replaced?

Hi Rob,
No this is not normal.
I would get it replaced

Definitely not usable. Looks like it was hit on the radius of that tube hard enough to flatten it and compress it at the fitting.

Thanks Peter,

I've contacted FFR to see how to resolve it. Hopefully it's easy for me to source locally.
