Default Are these plugs steamed cleaned

man i bet everyone is getting tired of me posting about my possible head gaskets failure, and i do apologize for the redundancy. i pulled my pugs out today and i attached a couple of pics, i need to know if they are steam cleaned, and i need and educated opinion. to me they look pretty clean, but im not sure if this is what is in the pictures is what everyone is talking about when they say steam cleaned.

Also i have codes 0300 and 0306 coming up on the scanner and all the plugs looked like these not just the 2 that are in the pictures.

thanks everyone

They look nice, but not like they're getting steam under pressure.

She www, thank goodness. I recently threw a bottle of Lucas in my gas. I have cheap wires but just ordered the magnecors and I'm gonna go get some Bosch double plus 4 as soon as the wires get here.

Thanks guys that eases my mind. I read so many posts on here about blown head gaskets that I'm paranoid mine is blown or is about to blow. Every time I run run into a problem now I question the head gasket. I think I need to take a break from reading the posts that envolve that......old gasket failure lol
Thanks again mike and gprtech
