No this is nothing to do with smog. It is something that happens to rubber
mpcs especially when exposed to sunlight. I have seen various tricks to
reduce the colouration but wouldn't bother unless the accompanying smell
offends you.

Is this the vulcanized rubber or some other kind of mp? My old
vulcanized rubber mp turned green in the smog where I grew up. Would
washing the mp w/soap and water reduce the salt etc. deposits that
occur on the beak?
