Re: Foundation Steel?
This is a rusting rebar at the surface of the wall, not a form snap tie.
It should be in your report as a repair item for the reasons that Bruce so well described in his post. The repair should retard the corrosion that can spall and crack the concrete, for instance wire brushing off the rust and painting the steel.
