Default Heads Ported or Not?

Hi All, can someone tell me if these heads have been ported or not? I bought my bike off someone and these were supposedly sent out. I am upgrading my engine from 103 to 110 kit. Thanks

The boss from this angle looks shorter..but most people will at least boat tail them to a nice rudder front.
The intake still looks shrowded.
Looking at the gasket dia and some other things I would say, absolutely no
it appears in the first pic you have a very bent valve?
