If they drop in and turn, I'd say they're fine. I'd personally return them and buy Howards or some other brand.
If you can't wait, maybe WD40 and emory them smooth? But you shouldn't need to with new lifters

They look like they have been in storage for years and years. I'm doubting they came right out of production like that and I wouldn't use them
Facts are stubborn things.

If you’d like to put it together instead of waiting for parts, a little PB Blaster and some scotchbrite would probably take care on that in short order.

My buddy lost 2 comp cams on a run stand almost immediately. 3 weeks apart same part number. Both from Summit Racing. I sold him an old MP cam I had that dated pre 2000. No issues…. Been in car driven regular for over a year. I have a Comp cam in my Barracuda bought in 2010. Still good.

If the outside looks like that what does the inside look like? There are moving parts on the inside and if there's rust in there it could interfere with the plunger, metering disc and spring inside the lifter. If you're in a hurry, take the lifters apart and make sure there's no rust inside, clean them up, coat with oil and use them.
I love the smell of Deer guts in the morning, it smells like... VICTORY!
