Made a start on restoring the wheels, front hub has some corrosion pitting I assume where this was the lowest point when the bike was sat. Photo doesn't bring it out but deepest pits are ~ 0.5mm. As you can see 2 segments are affected. It just been blasted with aluminium oxide, and the photo is over exposed so not as white as it looks in the pic.

I have read of these hubs cracking in racing use. But is this one mortally wounded, should I be looking at a replacement?
