Unfortunately, we have also no idea how the metal should look like really. The look of the metal will depend on both the composition of the metal, but also the color temperature of the light.

Without a standardized color chart my impression is that we will not be able to say here more.

I'd expect camera white balance to snap the metal to gray and compensate for the color temperature of the light.
