Lightening Cable & Charging Port question

Hello. I have a few questions regarding chargers. Will using old lightning cables damage my new iPhone 14 Pro Max’s charging port? There are worn out/corroded marks right below the white rectangle on the old charging cable I own, does that scratch, scrape, dent, or damage the surrounding metals or metallic pins that transfer the electricity inside the charging port?


I am now using the new USB-C charging cable in the box that came with the new phone.


Thank you for your consideration.

iPhone 14 Pro Max, iOS 16
