While I'll agree it's not Code-compliant as others have said, on existing
work I'd not bother to change out a wire; just mark the ends and go on w/
correct color coding from there.

This is, of course, assuming that they did actually do what is said and
not a mis-identification...


This wiring must be a conduit.

Unless I'm missing something, all you really need to do is run a while
neutral wire.


What do you expect that to accomplish? The OP never said he's missing a
neutral wire -- he said some previous person used a green wire as a hot
conductor. How will running a white neutral wire change that?
