How to determine if a replacement of the x-axis rod is needed?

Hello, I upgraded from i3MK3 to i3MK3S+ and about a year ago, I changed all the rods and bearings to those from  Misumi. Upon very close inspection, I noticed a scratch of about 2.5cm and a few micro scratches on a x-axis rod. However, I did not sense the scratch when running my fingernail across it. In this case, is it still advisable to get 1 or 2 new rods before the upgrade to 3.5/3.9? Can I still use Misumi bearings with Prusa's rods?
