As others have said the emergency spillway is the area to the left of the main concrete spillway.
It’s a waterfall right now and the resisting force of the hill holding back the lake is being eroded back toward the concrete top. Once enough resisting force has been removed the lake will have its way.

That may be.
It depends on whether, when it was built, its footing was dug down and built on the underlying rock, and thick enough to hold back the water without any dirt on the “dry” side.
I don’t know.
