Default Clutch hub splines

This weekend I decided to finally fix my inner primary leak and replace my stock compensator with the SE version. When I pulled my clutch off I found a bunch of metal pieces still setting on the input shaft to the trans. The splines were chipped off about half way through the clutch hub. Anyone else have this issue? Talking to my indy he made it sound like a common problem. I had him replace the clutch components about 4500 miles ago and he said they must have looked good cause he checks them everytime. Are there any good aftermarket parts that hold up to the abuse?

Its not uncommon. I replaced my compensator a couple of years ago and found the same thing.
