Look good to me...
I wouldn't hesitate to reuse them.

For the turbo -> engine, inspect the crimp edges around the exhaust port.
Make sure there are no cracks or creases running radially.
Look for signs of exhaust leaks - black marks that indicate exhaust gases are leaking past the gasket; it will look like a cone-shaped black mark most of the time.

For the turbo -> turbo exhaust manifold, basically the same thing/
No cracks...no creases.

Warped is okay, since it'll be clamped down during proper torquing of the fasteners.
