Here is RAW on surprise:
If a port attack or a naval combat at sea only involves units controlled
by major powers declaring war, and the major powers they are
declaring war on, the surprised units always get 0 surprise points. The
attacking major powers get the normal number (this will increase the
number of net surprise points the attacker can spend, if there is any
combat).
That leaves the question: what is naval combat. Here is RAW again:
11.5 Naval combat
11.5.1 Combat sequence
After you have made all your naval moves, you can, if you wish,
initiate naval combat. A side can only try to initiate combat once in
each sea area each naval combat step (there can be any number of
interception combat attempts during naval movement).
You can’t try to initiate naval combat at all if you chose a land or pass
action. However, your units can take part in any combat that another
major power initiates.
Choose a sea area and initiate a combat there. You can only choose an
area if it contains at least one unit from each side that are at war with
each other (etc. etc. etc.).
Therefore: Germany is not surprised in the North Sea, since there are Polish ships in the sea area with which they are at war. The search rolls are part of naval combat...
