You need to make the x-axis on your frequency plot extend to at least 22KHz as none but the most utterly fecal lossy sources will display any drop off below 11 KHz. Sample rate should be 44100 ?

Certainly looks kosher but a spectral analysis as well is always a good idea.

The possible FM source doesn't display any of the classic FM characteristics i.e. a discernable partial drop at around 15KHz and a spike at 19KHz from the pilot tone.
