    There are several things that can cause distorted leaves, but with the odd shaped fruit it's probably plum pocket disease

        I don't really know, new gardener. I saw a case of it once on a mirabel plum tree in someone else's back garden in the city, and the following year it looked OK. I don't know if it got any kind of treatment.

        The RHS recommends removing all the infected parts and fruit. https://www.rhs.org.uk/advice/profile?pid=199
