Also noticing some chiesil marks on the sides possible letters or numbers

If you took the rock on the right and laid it horizontal, there is then a flat top and bottom, and what looks like a part to fit together with another stone. Think along the lines of tongue-in-grove wood.

Kinda like this (apologies for my poor drawing skills):

That, or it's just my pareidolia kicking in.
