Corrosion from the brazing some many years ago.., looks like high humidity has had a go too.

In the assembly and sealing process, pans got brass splattered on them. It corrodes green.
The inevitable often happens.

Re: What's this green stuff?
Thanks. Overall the exterior and interior are in great shape. Underside, not bad but a closed plastic jug of muriatic was stored. Created a mess under there.
The jug was wedged under the drivers wishbone and it looks like the titanic. Not sure what years of exposure did to that metal. Luckily there about the worst part of it.
