Hi Miriam,
Here are some pictures

This is the "black" one (not completely black but the discolouration looks black rather than brown).

This is from the same machine.

This is from the second machine, the bobbin winder and stitch length regulator are very brown.
I tried cleaning up the back plate from this second machine and I've got it a lot cleaner than it was but in no way does it look as good as I would like it to (still lots of black areas on it). I'll try and get pictures of it.
