hello everybody

as i have a noise on humps , i started to investigate the car , which i have only from few days .
i knew suspension has some work to do before buying it.

i took picture of upper arm left front , which is here


can someone tell me if this is normal condition for such part or not ( honestly i think not ) could this be the cause of the noise ?
thanks for your comments
