It's hard to say from that pic but it looks kind of like rust spots

No,it's barely used.

It's for a friend and he has the same chimney in his basement running a 3100 regency and that chimney gets burned almost 24/7 and no issues on it.

I’m not sure, but it looks like the reflection of a guy with a camera. It doesn’t look dangerous, but we don’t know what else he’s taking pictures of.
