I would be concerned about the integrity (I see at least one crack), as well as tracking if the steering head is not straight. You can do some measurements to determine if it is straight.
You probably weren't looking for this answer, but your safety might be at stake here.

Well I got myself another frame which is straight.
On the plus side I now can now get the frame painted properly before I start swapping parts over.

Good to hear you found a frame.
It's a fun job swapping everything. I've done it a few times.
I had a Hurricane frame where the PO ground all the welds and bondo it. When I got the bondo off the welds were cracked because he destroyed the integrity...very dangerous. I welded it and reused it.
