Are these things I should consider bad

I've noticed a few things that I'm not sure about. I've posted pics.

The first is the damper on the HOT. The leads look like they've encountered a decent amount of heat. The leads are no longer silver. The same goes for the zener diode in the ABL circuit. All other diodes in the set have silver leads with no signs of discoloration.

The last one is a composite resistor in the ABL circuit. I don't know if this is a defect in manufacturing or if it's heat damage. Could be someone touched it with an iron.

Thanks.
