Pretty sure I know but I'd be interested in some better informed opinions. I've been using white vinegar at about 1/4 or 5 for stop bath, is this what's meant by "pinholes"?

No, it's dirt on the film. Maybe silver particles from very old fixer.
Pinholes would be black when viewed as positive.

Ditto what Andreas says.
Try filtering your fixer with a paper coffee filter at the beginning of your developing session, even if not that old.

Thanks guys, I will try filtering the fixer. Makes sense as it was not on all frames though only 1/3 of that fixer had been used for one roll and poured back into the remaining 2/3. Made with distilled water too.
