    Oh boy... That is an issue! This is a fungal infection, likely, within the tree. Have any branches fallen off that look like they are empty in the center? I also notice that there are a few larval holes. I don't know if they are currently in the tree, or just have been in the past but I do see insect damage as well. This tree may be on its way out, and in need of professional removal if it is close enough to a structure to damage it. I would contact a local arborist in your area and see what they say. They will get a good look at it, and be able to feel the damaged spots as well.

    The top may have died off. It the whole thing is brittle, then this may be your best option. Can you include a photo so that I can better see what is going on?

    The peeling appears to be the natural process, but the browning leaves can signal a fungal infection. I would apply dolomitic lime, and wettable sulfur to the area, and this could clear up by the next season

    Yes, this could be a disease, such as Phytophthora.
    The safety of your home is the most important and I would suggest having a qualified Arborist examine the tree.

    We do not sell plants, we only offer information on them. I can offer you some insight though. This usually happens when the tree is trying to flush out an insect infestation. Cure that, and you will likely cure your problem. This article will help: https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/ornamental/trees/eucalyptus/eucalyptus-tree-leaking-sap.htm

    This plant likes lots of sun, either bright indirect light or full sun. Eucalyptus plants are drought tolerant, but containers dry out more quickly than the garden. Make sure the potting soil is thoroughly damp by watering until water begins to seep from the drainage holes in the bottom of the pot. Let the potted eucalyptus dry out slightly between waterings.
