I've done all 4 at one point or another in my life.
What is the bolt for? Caliper bracket to knuckle?
If that is what the bolt is for. And by looking at the head of the bolt. The flank of the face doesn't look to healthy. So I would pick option 4. Because of the flank starting to round off.But I don't know what the rest of the head looks like.
Get four new ones. You will thank yourself in the long run!!
