I believe you are referring to the fuser drum rather than the lamp.

It does look like possibly an abrasion in the teflon coating of the
drum, possible caused by it rubbing on the heat sensor that comes in
contact with the drum to determine if the fuser is hot enough. Many
laser printer have some remnant of this, but it usually indicates a
rather heavily used fuser drum. How old was your very first printer
when you sent it in for repair?

My very first printer was 3 months old (1300 pages).It was my fault
sending back to brother this printer for the scanner noise.I should
wait or get it REPAIRED and not replaced.I learn my lesson.ALL printers
are refurbished,noone is brand new.
 
That mark does not concern me. It indicates that the printer is probably
refurbished but based on my experience with Brother laser printers I would
expect the fuser to have a long and happy life. As a matter of fact it almost
certainly is toner, there is nothing else that it really could be. I have seen
these sort of marks on many fusers, especially those that use hard rollers. It
is not too difficult to clean these marks off, the hard part is getting the
fuser out of the printer so that you can do so. Under no circumstances however
should you attempt to clean the roller with anything that is even slightly
abrasive. There are specialised toner removers available, however if it were my
printer I would not do anything about it.
Good luck.

I tried to clean it with a smooth cloth but it isn't toner and isn't on
the outer surface.
Anyway i'll remain with this printer (until maggior issue) because i
have no idea what crap, brother can send me again!!!
This printer has 5000 pages printed,so i don't think fuser is going to
die soon.
At least i have a 2 year warranty :)

LESSON: Get your brand new printer fixed and not replaced! *YES* I
LEARNED IT!!!!

Thanks again guys! I really appreciate your PRECIOUS help and support!!!
