If the selector fork was bent then it would get lodged between the row of gears. The selector is "worn" nothing more. The fact that there was no swarf in the oil is a good thing although if there was it would be in the filter for the gauze on the bottom on the oil scavenge pipe. Its safe to ride at the moment but you will have to avoid 2nd as much as possible (changing up twice from first).
