Default Damaged Yoke?

Hi,

Just purchased a 17-4 and noticed that the yoke seems little loose. It swings out with no resistance at all and there is some play between the yoke and frame. With closer inspection it appears the yoke is proud to the frame as pictured:

When i press on the yoke it becomes flush with the frame.
I removed the yoke and can see a prominent groove along what I assume is the yoke button.

I shot the gun a few days ago and it seemed like the timing and lockup were fine. Is this something I need to worry about (as per the FAQ section on yoke endshake) or is this normal wear?

Thanks in advance
