I went to check a plug on my car and realised the last time Id used my spark plug socket was changing from front cylinder spark plug on my 05 sv. Ive been riding aound like this for a while, is it worth digging it out? is it most likely a melty mess in there?

I had to reglue the rubber insert on my plug socket because it always did that. Quite annoying. It's not damaging anything staying on the plug as long as the coil wire goes on completely, but a pick with a small hook on it or simply remove the plug with the same socket and don't use the rubber cushion on installation.
