Macbook Pro M1 13" - dark spots on flex cable

Hi together :-)

i just bought an used Macbook Pro M1 13" and checked the overall condition.

Here i found something that i can't see on another Macbook.

If you look at the space between the monitor and the bottom case and you open the display you can see the flex cable - the visible part of the cable changes depending on the opening angle of the monitor.


Here I see partially darker spots, possibly from an glue or liquid.


Is this normal or was there a monitor replacement or liquid damage?


Thank you for your replys, i really appriciate that!
