If your father's brother is your uncle, then presumably your stepfather's brother is your step-uncle?
Is that term used in the UK? Just curious. Although the term step-uncle would be appropriate I've never heard it used in my state (Michigan). It might be used in other parts of the US but I don't recall ever hearing it used. It seems like people either use uncle or the person's name. *shrugs*

Wouldn't 2) be a step-uncle?

I don't think it's an "official" term, but I think enough people have made it up from first...
