Tomato mosaic virus?

I am experimenting with an upside down tomato planter with an upper portion for herbs. I have two tomato plants (Better Boys) growing out the bottom, and parsley, chives, oregano, basil and cilantro on the top.
My tomatoes are flowering, but I am now noticing that some stems have leaves with with a light brown mottling pattern.

A few questions...

1. Does this appear to be a mosaic virus variety? No bugs are anywhere on the plants.
2. If so, will the rest of my herbs be damaged? Is it too late to transplant them and replace the soil?
3. Will the tomatoes be inedible if I keep the plants?
