Default Bent Jack Stand Point

If i have a slightly bent jack stand point, will it still be durable if i hammer it back straight? i'm afraid if i hammer it back, it will just bend again when i place a jack stannd on top of it

I wouldn't hammer it. Try to find some kind of tool to flatten the bend. Maybe a large C-clamp with a piece of flat steel for backup.

How badly is it bent? Picture??
