I wouldn't do anything until after the keyways have been mag inspected, or checked with dye penetrant inspection. There can be cracks stating your eye can not see. All three might be fine or all 3 might be junk. Not worth the risk of breaking the end off the axle. These are OLD and who knows how many miles they went without the proper torque.
That is my 2 cents.
