Looks like just bent fins. This won't cause leaks or any performance drop off. You can bend them back (carefully) with a small nail or flathead screwdriver. If anything, they would just possibly collect more dust than the rest of the fins since they are oriented in a way that makes them prone to that.

Just make sure there aren't any holes or leaks from the tubes...they are long, narrow metal parts the fins are attached to. This is where the water/coolant flows through. Fins being bent are fine, damaged or leaking tubes are not.
