so didnt bother to show picture of what your talking about when you were on your friends ship.
showing picture of umbra with its damaged helm doesnt help us know what this thing looks like

If u zoom in you can see the blue veins around the eye,but only with him with this helmet worked,also i didn't noticed till i got a closer look after getting on his dojo

The Helminth Cyst is a small pink bulb of Infected Virus that spreads from Warframe to Warframe in-game, shown on the left side of their neck. When someone else has it and gets close to you, it infects you. It means no harm, and once fully grown (an antenna will grow from it) you can either cure it in the Infested room on your Orbiter, or drain it in your Incubator to create a Helminth Kubrow or, I believe, Kavat. Don't quote me on the Kavat though, I'm not 100% certain on that. Word of caution though, curing it will mean that Warframe can no longer grow a Cyst. Draining it on the other hand, allows for it to grow back, and gives you a cool pet.

The eye has nothing to do with the Cyst I believe. Perhaps it just shows more evidence of being infected.

I was really surprised when i saw that and i didn't know what it is,also the cyst is not on the neck(i can't see if it s or not because of that warframe syndana)

On Umbra it's hard due to the scarf, but now if you equip the normal Excalibur Skin I'm pretty sure you should be able to see a tiny pink dot on your neck.

The Helminth Cyst grows on every new warframe you get. It's a little pink zit-like thing that grows on the left side of the neck for about a week until it fully matures (aka has a little tentacle poking out and wriggling around), and then you can either cure it in the infested room in your oribiter or you can drain it on an incubating kubrow to get a Helminth Charger. Draining it allows it to grow back, but curing it prevents that warframe from ever getting the cyst again. It's really hard to see on Umbra because of his scarf. 

I'm pretty sure the screenshot doesn't have anything to do with the cyst, though. From what I gathered while playing The Sacrifice, Excalibur Umbra is an infested 'frame to begin with, so that could be why he has that little blue mark. Don't quote me on that, though.
