Crank Pulley Balance

Hello,

I replaced the harmonic balancer on a 2004 Mazda B3000.

When putting the crank pulley back on, I noticed there was a spot of weld bead inside the pulley as-if it was put there for balancing the pulley.

Of course I did not mark the pulley to make sure it went back on to the same bolt holes and crank orientation.

Is this any to worry about?

Welcome to the forum

No, it shouldn't matter, each part is balanced separately
