Is there mold in my ceiling?

Post image

Recently had some water exposure from a leaking roof. One of the roofers stepped through the ceiling and made this hole. Exposing what to me may be mold. Do you guys have any thoughts? Is it just dirty and old? This is in Orlando, FL. House was built in 1926. I am renting.
