Default t3 turbo wastegate

do the penny washers inside the esrt wastegate housing wear??
reason i ask is that ive been loosing boost on my car and i took the housing off to see if this was the problem and i noticed that the washer will not sit flat against the hole as it appears to have worn.
when it is fully shut it is not level with the exhaust housing.
anyone had this trouble or knows a bit more about turbos??
thanks
Dave
