Breech block extractor problem

I hsve no idea what causes that deformation but I do know that I have seen several examples of breech blocks that have "spalled" at that location, with pieces actually missing from the front of the block. It looks like this breech block is headed in that direction...too bad.

A couple of questions....is this an original breechblock or an aftermarket item? Does the extractor move freely up and down in the extractor channel?
