I seem to recall reading something about CRT makers using some type of marker for lining up the Ion trap, since this seems to be directly under the trap I wonder if that's what this is?
Obviously not gas because that would be purple and between the elements, this almost looks like it's something (phosphor?) applied to the outside of that part.
