chain question

[Texas_Heat]

i have a chain here that doesn't seem to stretch straight, the photos show one of the areas that will not straighten out. this cant be right the chain is a EK530 DPZ2 is this a good chain or should i look into a new one, maybe it needs to have a good cleaning or something. this chain stuff is just new to me and just dont want to abuse it or lose it...
