(2) this photo was taken using lubitel universal
(a)something funny happened, some of us with longer neck than usual,
(b) also seems like corner light leak - is it the viewing hole for film number leaking lights or something else?

There could be a number of reasons for the green cast. One would be the usage of expired films/damaged films. As film age, the emulsion loses sensitivity to certain parts of the light spectrum and thus causing the green cast. Another explanation, although far-fetched could be flare.

The longer neck is most likely caused by perspective of which you did not realise when you were taking the photo. Regarding the light leak, it could be the viewing hole leaking lights. I assume that you were using 35mm film for the above shot. Lubitels are made for 120mm film which have a backing paper to 'protect' the film which the 35mm film is lacking. To solve the issue, just use black tape and tape the red spot.
