Oxidisation under the paint. Wouldn't worry about it. You've got bigger problems.
You know the fork is a press fit, right? You hammer it out. With a special tool :)
The lower bearing stays on the steerer whilst the top bearing stays in the cup.
You then convince the lower bearing to leave any way you can :)
I've a copy of the profannisaurus handy for the bearings ;)
What is the tool called? I better check they have it then.
The bb is also stuck, is it ok to use cola and hot water? I don't want to damage the paint.
(Also, so frame, many water, much puddles...)
