dont worry about the stem it could be anything and not an issue
normal vin is fine put a couple of drops in and test with your kit
I think some runoff spilt down the inside of your pot when it was dry and thus you were testing at 8.0 the same as your tap and when you flushed it you got the true reading
but ph your water to 7 will not hurt to be safe
are you good really need some sleep?
