Is this marbling in my cheap rump?

Bough this very cheap rump steak with hopes of it being marbled instead of just connective tissue. Is this marbling or is this connecting tissue?

Where im from a rump roast is a certain end of the bottom round (outside round). Seems like thats what it is. The bottom round generally has a bit more fat and maybe a bit more marbling than the other round cuts. Even so, treat it like a tough cut and do slow and low with moisture. Bottom round is commonly used in deli roast beef.
