Players try new things out so often that makers couldn't keep track of all the changes even if they wanted to. Transparent mouthpieces could be crystal (Pomerico makes a German model), acrylic, plexiglass (these go back quite a while and some made by Viotto are still advertised on the web), or some other transparent material. In an interview just a few months ago (May 11, 2018) Daniel Ottensamer did not express any one fixed preference in mouthpieces. He said he uses "mouthpieces by Hannes Gliechweit and Nick Kuckmeir." (These are the spellings given in the transcript). The interview (with co-principal Matthias Schorn as well) can be accessed on google.com as "From the Principal's desk: Matthias Schorn and Daniel Ottensamer, Vienna Philharmonic."
