I haven't seen scale rot in over a decade but it does not look like what I remember. It doesn't even necessarily look all that irritated. I would keep an eye on it and see if it clears up after the next shed. Also, I the only snake I ever saw scale rot on was kept in a cage that was very wet near a breezy window, so it was basically wet and cold...I don't think it's the easiest thing to get.
