That is true, Marukh the Seer is never confirmed directly as an Imga. However, he is directly referred to as "the Great Ape man" and "the Great Primate." It's also mentioned that he is from the western Colovian coast of Tamriel. Unless the Tang Mo are also in Tamriel (which would be fantastic) he would logically be an Imga.

Also, Imga culture is split. While some of them do have a facination with Altmer, going so far as to shave themselves in order to look more like them, the religion that Marukh founded promoted aggression towards elves. This led to the large dissapearance of the Wild Elves.
