What can I say about the Parikh map of a CSL?
Regarding the second part of your question: If you choose your CFL $L$ to be the set of all invalid computations of a Turing machine $M$ (see, e.g., Chapter 8.6 in the first edition of "Introduction to Automata Theory, Languages, and Computation"), $\phi(\overline{L})$ is the set of all lengths of encodings of accepting computations of $M$.

Although this does not directly answer your question, you can use this approach to construct quite complicated sets.
