I just got my new Cruzr Saddle in the mail and was inspecting it and noticed this. If this is safe and good to go then yippie but if I need to send it back should I or should I replace it myself, new to saddles so not sure really how to do it if so. Please see images below.

The location is on the AMsteel adjustable bridge (the prusik section)

That's the tag end woven back into the amsteel. My cruzr had one too in a different spot. I just pushed it back inside.
 
My bridge did the same thing. I pulled mine out to get a grip on the whole end, then continued the bury a little further up. Milked it down and it disappeared. Also, by pulling out the end, you can inspect both lines. If you don’t, taper the buried end, good chance it may pop put.
watch any how to or DIY video on amsteel and when you see how it works, you’ll get it. It’s genius, because it’s so simple.
btw, I’d bet both lines are fine and it would be ok if you did nothing to it……but trusting amsteel took a bit for me.

Not an expert but looks ok to me. Just the tag end showing
 
If you’re not sure I’d email pictures to Cruzr and just ask them. The nice thing about the majority of these smaller companies is how accessible they are and willing to answer questions.
 
If your not comfortable with it, send a pic to Cruzr. They wont steer you wrong. I put an extra endless Amsteel loop at my stopper knot for backup but I set my bridge and dont adjust it, but I could.
