You're absolutely correct. This is a Norway maple (maybe a red maybe actually?) And they tend to get splitty due to bad structure where branches meet.

Look into "bark inclusion" if you're curious.

Nah, not a maple. Looks like a Siberian elm.

Haha yup first thing I thought when glancing at the bark: not an oak. Agreed could be elm variety
