Send some pics, but it might be Brown Jelly Disease. It is believed to be caused by protozoan parasite, but bacteria has been incriminated too.

That's just one of them I have 3 that currently have brown flesh but it isn't falling off or anything. They are fully open and puffy during the day. I have a indo hammer that has beautiful white flesh along with my torch so not all of them have the brown flesh

I went ahead threw them in a KFC dip I'm doing for another one of my torches.
 
Your coral looks good to me.
Are you talking about brown tube below polyp, on the coral skeleton?
It looks like a vermetid snail to me , which is undesirable but not deadly. It can irritate some corals. I would brake it with some forceps or other implement.I have a suspicion that KFC dip may not harm vermetid.

No just the brown flesh. I've always heard it's supposed to be white. Yea I got rid of that thing I didn't see it since it was on the back side.

All of the flesh can contain zooxanthellae, so brown on the "stem" is not a bad thing.
