We are trying to housekeep our systems and have come across all the old

shutdown/restart NetWorker?

Interesting you should bring this up. There was a similar discussion on February 8th. The statement was made at that time that yes, you can just delete them if NetWorker no longer knows about them. I haven't personally tried it yet -- but it's on my list of things to do to clean up what I've inherited.

If you want to read the previous discussion, search the archives for the messages with the subject "index cleanup" at the beginning of this month.
