Is that paint discolored from the jet exhaust?
Good question, but it's one of the few that I've seen with that "discoloration" in that area.

Since the tail structure, except the elevators, were made of Beech, I honestly don't think it was exposed to exhaust gasses hot enough to discolor the paint.
