normal for exhaust valves. you gotta think about the super hot exploded gases going by those valves, causing the white, dry look. also the intake valves having the fresh fuel soaked air coming in causing the rich dark color. i'd say you are good to go. just make sure you clearance the valves before reassembly. i'd go for .008" intake, and .010" exhaust. also, replace those cam o-rings.
Good judgment comes from experience, and often experience comes from bad judgment.
