Nee hao Wee Mei,
When beding leads over a small radius, surface cracks can occur if the lead material is not at least quarter-hard annealed or softer—these cracks typically do not cause any problems. HOWEVER, the photos you sent Steve show cracks substantially more severe—I concur with Vladimir that cross-sections are definitely called for to make a more accurate assessment.

Subject: [TN] Crack and oxidisation on IC leads
Dear All,
During PCBA inspection, we noticed cracked line across the entire IC lead width
at the knee location. It happen to the whole row on one side of the IC and we
consider it a reject. However, our production subcontractor do not concur the
component as reject. They said that the crack is only fine line and is unlikely
to cause any major physical issue to the leads itself.
In another IC, we noticed a small area of oxidation on one of the lead of about
1 - 1.5mm in size. Again the subcontractor do not accept our decision that it is
a reject. The reason given by them is that although the corrosion exposed the
base metal it is acceptable because the exposed surface is not part of the
required solder fillet.
I have tried to upload the photo on IPC Technet but not successfully. Hope from
your experience, you can provide some opinions.
Thanks and Regards,
~ Wee Mei ~
