Definitely NOT maple and certainly an oak.

Probably white altho somewhat lacking in the amount of flecked
showing...but it could have been graded to have had them separated out.

Not impossible to be red, but would expect a few darker in such an area,
but again that depends on source as to what would be rare/unusual/common
mix.

Need some end grain up close to be able to say for certain.
Perhaps grey ash??

Dunno about that. I'm familiar with American white ash, green, blue,
pumpkin, asian an a couple other ashes but never heard of a "grey" ash.
Neither US FPL Handbook nor Hoadley have any such thing listed...

Most ash would be even more ring-porous obvious so I'm still leaning
towards an oak. But, it's really difficult to be certain from just a
picture.
