I take the liberty of re-posting a post of Burkhardt about removing the
Pyro stain. I tried it, and it works like a charm,
Best,

Here is the Kodak S6 formula for removing of stain:
Stock solution A:
Potassium parmanganate 5.2g
Cold water to make 1l
The permanganate has to be dissolved completely to avoid spots on the
neg.
Stock solution B:
Cold water 500ml
Sodium chloride 75g
Sulfuric acid, conc. 16ml
Cold water to make 1l
Caution: Never put the water into the acid, it will boil up!
Stock solution C:
Sodium bisulfite,
1% soilution, this means 1g for 100ml water
1. Harden the film (2-3min) in a hardener solution like 5-10% glyoxal
2. Wash for 5min
3. Bleach in equal amounts of A and B for 3-4min,
the mix is of short shelf life
4. After bleaching put negative in solution C until
all stain is removed
5. Wash thoroughly
6. redevelop under 100W bulb in a non staining developer of low alkali
like D72 dilution 1:2. D76 does no good because of itīs high sulfite
and low alkali which would dissolve the silver image
I did use this formula successful with some overstained Pyro negs a
couple
of times.
