the only way to really determine water damage is to open the phone and look at the LCI.
if you take a look at your picture of the motherboard you posted, see the square at the upper left. look at the thin part of the board where this connects. there is a white oval just above a flex connector. that's the LCI. if it contacts liquid, it will turn red.

You need to take the board out and physical inspect it for corrosion. Check and see if it's been wet. Was water inside the phone. Pull off the black coveralls and check under them. The water Mark's don't really mean anything. If you have high humidity it can cause them to turn red. The only way to tell in to physical inspect it.
