Had a mishap with my fork mount in my truck bed, resulting in a slightly bent fork dropout. The skewer seems as tight as ever, nothing seems functionally different. No cracks in the metal or any other visible damage from the bend other than the slight misalignment.
Is it nothing to worry about or is this fork doomed? It’s so small that I’m worried it’s not worth the risk to cold set it and over-correct it to be a misalignment problem in the other direction.

Cold set it? So it’s a steel fork?
Is this the only picture that shows the damage? That doesn’t look too bad from what I can see, but I’m having trouble understanding exactly what has happened. The focus is on the hub, and the rest looks blurry. You need to tap the screen to get it to focus on what you’re pointing it at.
