As far as honey fungus goes ... there is no fruiting body present at the base of the tree, and none noted by the customer in the past, so i guess thats ruled out.

 

Necrotrophic parasitic species of Armillaria only fruit, when the tree is (nearly) killed or on the remaining base of the trunk once the tree is felled.

is it termenal ,will the tre need removing

 

If it is infected with Armillaria, there is no (urgent) need to fell the tree, because necrotrophic parasitic Armillaria species only start slowly decomposing the trunk of the tree outside in towards the heartwood after it is dead to enable fruiting of the mycelium and because of this leave behind a stable "tree corpse" once it is killed.
