Appears to be two trains of thought here.  One where the head is cast similar to the originals with casting lines and roughness.  The other where the heads are actually smooth on the exterior finish and potentially can be emblazoned with the manufacturers logo on the ends.  Smooth works okay for myself.  What’s the general concensus here?
