It could well be down to incompetant staff at the  shop or like you say the car may have been sprayed at some point.

Metallic storm grey is definitely LK7Y as it's what ive got on my vehicle. There was another grey tone used on Golfs which was  called 'pearl grey' and is quite similar but slightly creamier but the code for that is LA7U. Maybe you've got that by mistake?
