Sorry, but I'm not sure I understand your response.
If the pipe was purged before welding, during welding, and for a short time after the weld was completed and still there is a heat tint there are only three probable causes I can think of. They are:
1) Insufficient purge or leakage that prevents a proper purge.
2) The purge was discontinued while the pipe was still above some temperature correlating to the temperature at which the temper colors observed form. They would be light straw at around 400 to 425 degrees F, dark straw at about 500 degrees F, brown at about 550 degrees F, purple around 575 degrees F, dark blue around 600 degrees F, and black around 800 degrees F.
The color of the tint provides a very good indication of when the purge was interrupted. In other words, the purge must continue to be maintained until the temperature of the joint and surrounding metal drops below 350 degrees F to prevent some level of discoloration.
3) Contamination on the inside or outside of the pipe. Contamination can discolor the weld and base metal beside the weld. The contaminate can be oils, drawing lubricants, solvents, paints, or anything that can be volatilized by the heat of welding. The maximum affect would be the weld that was liquid at some point and capable of reacting with the volatiles in the pipe. In other words, the pipe has to be swabbed to ensure it is clean. I've encountered this problem on several jobs. The "cure" was simple: clean, clean, clean until the solvent soaked swab shows no discoloration and allow ample time for the ID/OD to dry completely before assembling the spool.
If the purge and cleaning are done properly, there is no reason for discoloration on the ID. One way to prevent discoloration on the OD is to use a purge that envelops the entire diameter of the pipe. This is not uncommon when welding titanium.
