But normal hookbaits that's appear dry don't stain the fingers in the same way I had no doubt it's a dye but something about it means even when they look dry they just leak tested my rig in the margins and just a yellow halo around it instantly

Is due to the liquid attractors used in the bait.

Ccmoore's acid pears also dissolves dental floss or bait stops if it's longer then a week in contact with the bait.

Water soluble dyes, orange and yellow specifically, mixed with certain flavours is a recipe for stained fingers
Our tutti in orange is a prime example!
