Image 1 - You're talking about the 'pitting' above the cable port? That looks like its on the tube surface so I'd guess either from corrosion or over blasting.
Images 2 and 3 look like imperfections in the joints which will have been there since construction. I get these sometimes. I don't think they are the end of the world on an otherwise solid frame. I'd probably go round and fill them in with a little silver but the builder has perhaps hidden them with filler during the original paintjob.

Cheers all, has been really good to get the mixed opinions of the forum. Have gone back to the spray shop with a list of evidence why they could be at fault so will see what they come back with.
@Ben6899 avoiding mentioning the frame maker and spray shop by name in an open forum as don't think it would be fair on them if I pointed the finger unnecessary.
I've reviewed the frame again to take better images to send back to the sprayshop and one point I did notice is around the welds on the dropouts, chain stay bridge and bottom bracket there are tiny holes around the welds could this also be the product of over blasting as well?
