I believe the first post-HULK # 1 appearance/acknowledgement of the gray Hulk was in a flashback panel during the Crossroads storyline, shortly before JB took over and specifically acknowledged/canonized it in dialogue. Up until that point, every single reprint and retelling of the origin story had the Hulk as being green from the start. As is his way, JB was playing continuity fit-it man, and making a "mistake"/changed premise into a legitimate part of the lore.
I personally have no problem with the Hulk "really" being gray, at first. My problem is that, ever since the David run, there seems to have been a Hulk for every color, personality, and mood. And, like, his entire supporting cast has subsequently become a bunch of Hulks, right?
