You’re good, as long as there is no bare metal due to a ripped wrap you’re fine. Even then you can rewrap them but put them outta rotation until then. Those look good to go though.
It looks more like a ripple in the wrap than an ejuiice streak to me, but it can be hard to tell with pictures. Like madstabber, I don't see anything there that would worry me overmuch. Keep an eye on it, make sure the wrap stays intact, but other than that I'd keep using it.
As long as there's no bare metal exposed on the positive end of the cell you should be OK. If the wrap cracks and begins to show metal I'd do a rewrap. All it takes is some new wraps and a blower dryer on high.

From what I can tell it looks fine. As other have said, as long as the plastic insulation wrap around the battery is completely free of any tears or holes, you're good.
That darkened area under the wrap is relatively common with Sony batteries. No one is quite sure what causes it, but Sony's wraps are semi-transluscent which makes the dark spots more noticeable.

You are right, it is the Sony battery 2500 mah vtc5a . Thank you for letting me know. It might not be an ejuice streak after all. It all feels in tact, with no metal exposed.From what I can tell it looks fine.

Thank you everyone for your input, and letting me know I can continue to vape safely on this battery.
