Is the audio pitch too high or too low?

It was (is) common to play 24fps film at 25fps for PAL broadcast/recording. The 4% higher pitch is noticeable, especially if you have heard the correct version.

It is hard for me to believe that any copies would have been issued with the 24 fps speeded up to 25 fps for PAL and then that master upped to 30 fps to "convert" to NTSC, which is what you seem to be claiming. The pitch would be very high.
