i would say yes a graphite grey for helmet & shoulder cogs unless someone knows different ?
Exactly. The silver in the decal reflects the light making it look white, especially in the pics you are posting that Jez took which were in direct sunlight. He verified the color to me when he had the helmet in his possession when he took those pics. They were never white. Same mistake on the color of the ATAT helmets.so this helmet on Star Wars Helmets has grey cogs? Maybe they look white is due to age and the picture (like how everyone thought the AT-AT driver helmets were white)? Does that mean the jumpsuit patches were grey/silver as well?

They were a light grey/silver. Some of the helmets with grey silver detailing may have got a smear of paint over the cogs.Seeing a screen-used helmet in person, the cogs looked very white to me. My understanding is that they rubbed graphite powder or painted thin graphite paint on some of the silkscreened white and black vinyl cogs.
