As i mentioned, it's likely that Hagoromo's chakra is gone, which probably was what caused the markings you described. Hagoromo did have the Juubi in him for a long time and so his chakra likely contains Juubi chakra hence the markings.

it explains why Naruto can use Kurama Sage Mode without pigmentation. The Sage's chakra is gone which is why the look defaults to Kurama Cloak but lacks the traditional fiery nature. It explains why his cloak is coated in Kurama chakra yet he seems to have a 6PSM-like dark underarmor.

Similar to how Sasuke still has permanent effects from receiving the Sage chakra (His rinnegan) naruto still has permanent effects to his Cloak (The underbody/cloak design and lack of pigmentation) but seems to lack the true power (naruto: levitation and Yang healing, Sasuke: no cooldown on his Rinnegan).
