Folks, would you agree that the top of this tile roof area above this chimney needs mortar or cap to prevent rainwater from penetrating below it? Or, would you not mention it?

I would mention that it should be further evaluated for proper/improper installation.
Needs repair for sure!
Cheers

Yeah, I would call that out.
I agree and thank you as always folks. Much appreciated.
You might want to take a second look at that “cricket” as well.

Agree. The cricket appears to be undersized because of the chimney frame venting. Good eye Bob.
Although the chimney chase looks properly flashed on all sides including tile clearances, I feel the flashing below the cricket tiles would be better served with a ridge caps and would mention that in my report. I feel that area, the top of the cricket, is deficient of roof covering material. Ridge tiles would produce better flashing longevity.
