ariatgirl, he still looks like a black smoke to me, that is if his undercoat near the skin is white. "Ghost" tabby markings in black smokes are quite common as kittens and fade out in the adult coat. If body colour is grey to skin he'd still be considered a black. Quite a number of black longhairs are more dark grey especially on body than really black, even among Persian show cats, though the colour standard for black Persians calls for black to the roots. Following pics will illustrate:
