The quick and dirty way is to take the valve (new or good condition) and rock it back and forth ( side to side) in the guide. If you can feel it move it requires repair. (most people can feel .007 inch movement)
Properly you get a proper gauge and measure the diameter of the guide in several locations and at several points on the "clock" at each depth.
