No, these are transitive verbs. crater, mark and pitt are verbs as well as nouns:
I marked the spot -> I made a mark I pitted the olive -> I removed the pitts
If "Those olives are pitted" means "they gots da pits" then similarly "This fish are filletted" would mean "they gots da bones", which is clearly not true. In means "they got da bones taken out"!
