Is there one N to much? Or how is it bonded.

From what I can make out from the picture it is
(E)-2-ethylidenehydrazinecarboxamide

It should be then CH₃CH=NNHCONH₂

It should be then CH₃CH=NNHCONH₂

You wrote the same thing OP did.

The TES wrote CH₃CH=NNCONH₂ this is different to CH₃CH=NNHCONH₂

Surely the latter will not satisfy the nitrogen valence?
