Hi Nette, it could be a Cabbage gum but I'm guessing based on the photos. If you can collect any fruit or buds underneath the tree, they are key for identifying eucalypts

Maybe a Lophostemon confertus, will wait for someone else to confirm.
Eucalyptus bridgesiana

Yeah, often it's like that. Eucalypts, Corymbia and Angophora (Gums) can be quite difficult to identify without fruit, buds and leaves. If you don't find any it would be good opportunistically collect fruit/buds if you see them in the future as they provide valuable clues!
You can read more about Red Bloodwoods here and cross reference the buds if they look the same - https://keys.lucidcentral.com/euclid/text/entities/corymbia_gummifera.htm

Hmm hard to tell, if you can find some fruit and buds that would be super helpful in the ID. Eucs can be notoriously difficult
