Chipped steering pump pulley

Did a major service t-belt, water pump, spark plugs, valve cover gaskets.

In my haste, I chipped off a 3/4" lip of the steering pump pulley. The lip keeps the serpentine belt on track. I am looking for a replacement but soliciting advice on should I drive the vehicle as is.

I wouldn’t worry unless the chip was more than one quarter of the diameter of the pulley. I don’t think your anywhere near that. But yea, I’d get it replaced as soon as possible.
