Camo? M1917A1 Helmet

Got this M1917A1 helmet at the SOS some years ago(2015 or 2016 I believe). Looks to be a WW1 shell refurbed into a M1971A1. Heat stamp looks to be Z0234 or ZC234. Question is does this look to be possible camouflage or just some random splatter that got on it at some point? Don't know much about camo helmets in general so.  Any help would be greatly appreciated, thank you.

Hard to tell ?

 

Am I seeing color here and there under the green ?

 

Like Tan or red ?

 

Is something painted under it ?

 

It could be purposely done....

Yeah im not to sure. When I was looking at it I thought that it maybe rust. Some spots could be paint but I assumed it was rust.

I'd say so as all I collect is camos.

 

It looks to have been on there along time if you look at the rim ring where it's stopped it's oxidized or at least started too.

Honestly I think someone spilled something on it. Have you tried using a wet cloth on a small portion to see if it comes off?

No I haven't. Not sure if its camo or not so I didn't want to remove it or attempt to remove it before knowing what it is.
