I just had the the same bent ejector end problem with a SKB 885 12 ga. that I bought new in 1990 and has many rounds through it. I noticed the right side ejector end was bent outward like you mention. I did not notice any warpage of the forend wood. I pushed on it trying to bend it back and the end broke off. I sent the whole gun to GU in Oklahoma and had both ejectors and all of the springs replaced. Great service and quick turnaround. I am told they still have most of the parts for the older SKB line.
