At a guess I'd say your lozenge shape is the witness mark from one of, possibly several, ejector pins on the inner tube mould tool.
Once the mould cavity has been filled with latex / butyl / whatever the tube material is, the ejector pin / lozenge will push the tube off the mould as soon as it has had sufficient time to cure / cool, allowing for the next charge of the tool to be introduced.
Speeding up this procedure (pushing them off before they've fully cured / cooled) allows the manufacturer to churn out more units per hour.
It is possible the ejector pin is pushing against a product which hasn't fully cured / cooled. Creating a weak point on its sharp edges, causing perforation(s) to take place there, especially once under pressure.
Purely supposition on my part - until that is, someone with a better knowledge of injection moulding corrects me.
