Default Is my injector port clean enough?

In preparation for my new(used) injector arriving tomorrow, I've taken out my incontinent number 5 and prepped everything for a quick install.
It's my first time so I'm paranoid about the cleanliness.
Does it look ok?

It's always good to be paranoid about cleanliness. Especially where fuel systems are concerned.

Thanks chaps.
Believe it or not, the degreasing of the area before removing the injector and the port cleaning afterwards took longer than the injector removal itself (which I'd been dreading).

Satisfying though
