My guess is that fittings and block are different materials, thus that different color. Its not easy to match color with different mats. Even automotive industry sometimes has issues with this (not in daylight, but under artificial light for example).

It's the anodization that is different, but yes- I concede it is hard to get batch to batch replication.
