Hinoki pollen cones or fungal issues

I was wondering if these are male pollen cones on this hinoki or a sign of fungal issues to come? The black tips, hard to see without zooming in


Ours have pollen cones at those positions but I am not familiar with hinoki pathogens (haven’t seen any).

Looks like pollen cones to me, I wouldn’t be worried
