Tacpac paint scheme issue

I have been enjoying getting the hang of the Saber w/tacpack but I notice when the external fuel tanks are loaded the left pylon it is mounted on is extremely shiny, even more so than chrome would be. Checking all the other paints I see the USAF Korean war aircraft is entirely like this.
It appears that that shiny paint is making it's way to the other normal schemes on the pylon.
I am not normally a rivet counter but this is quite the eyesore for what are otherwise great looking paints.

Further input on the aforementioned.
I noticed this on the drop tanks.
as far as I know these streaks are confined to the additional repaints pack

Are these paints from the installation version?

The photo I posted is of one from the repaint pack at the bottom of the product page. The streaking that looks similar to leaking on the bottom of the fuel tanks is unique to the repaint pack as far as I know.
What My original post was about is the pylon that the fuel tank is attached to. As you can see in the image it is completely "chrome" that is on all aircraft including the default ones on installation.
I realize support for a repaint pack is a different animal so for clarity, if I purchased the F-86 today and did not add any repaints, all the aircraft would have a chrome pylon when fuel tanks are attached.
Thanks for looking at it, William
