Is it normal for old leaves to split from P-stem?

not sure about the spots. but depending on the variety of the plant, splitting from the p-stem is normal. namwa is great for that among others.

Both issues are normal for older leaves on a plant.
They will do this before they turn yellow and expire.
You may trim the leaf off when it becomes too unsightly
