Was work on installing intake and charge pipe and noticed this. Only have 1200 miles. She is brand new.

should I be worried?

should I take it to toyota?

First photo is front of engine by the intake pipe.
Second is behind the turbo.

Not a Corvette.
100% normal. Manifold has high iron content, like brake rotors.

Yup, normal. This is what the hot side of turbo housings do.
