I would definitely try to find a way to see the dad of this pup, if your friend doesn't have pictures and/or videos of him. If none of that is possible, I would wonder why the sire is being kept secretive...

As to the color issue, if it is just the pics that make him look brownish in the face/legs, then he should stay black... My 3 year old black girl is ink black still.. no fading, nothing. I don't think the blacks will turn gray with age... maybe just around the muzzle area a little. The one my mom had, and then the one I had when I was a kid were over 12 when they passed on, and they were black still.
I think you are right, I am going to request a picture of the dad or something. The CKC thing kinda has given me second thought on him. I don't want a mixed breed, I want a pure poodle. Who on here sells AKC toy poodles, is it you mstplumeria? Wondering if I should just wait until I find a AKC baby.
