Some are grey, some are purple. What is the difference?

When you apply a color to the base computer, it will change the icon you see to the same color.

I always changed mine to orange so they would stand out a bit more and be easier to find.

I can change the color of my base icon? I thought I could only do that with the save beacon.

I am on a second run through the expedition and am looking for my base. Its not there. Thought the grey icon (from my first run) might mean that it isn't uploaded. Odd.

Yeah you can! Just highlight it and press the same button(s) you would to recolor any wall or something. You can change the color of (almost) all the things you can build, not just the walls/floors.
