I noticed something in his beak yesterday, I thought it was dirt or poop. After a closer look, it’s a cut of sorts. How does it look? Any suggestions? Im off to google it for now...

Probably got the beak stuck somewhere, feeder, waterer, fencing, etc. I honestly would do nothing, it should slowly grow out on it's own. As long as the bird is eating and drinking normally, it should be fine. When it gets close to the tip there may be a sharp, or ragged edge, or a bit may fall off. If it's a risk to catch on things you can gently file the rough part off, but you may have to do nothing at all. Eventually, once it grows out it will look normal again.
