I think YCM labs did the original restoration on the prints, and from what I understand, Lowry never even had access to actual film- Lucasfilm just gave them hard-drives with the films on them.
I still don't think anybody knows for sure at what point the blue tint was introduced, though.
The blue tint was added when George Lucas split gatorade on the film.
