Shutter curtain bounce?
I had that happen on one of my F-1s once and it looked similar though that was a horizontal shutter, not a vert, so the line was on the narrow end of the frame instead of the wide side like yours.

Always thought Leicas Ms had Vert shutter.s My digital Leicas have them.
Rick, I just read older Leica Ms do have horizontal shutters. So you were right.
This does look exactly like the shutter bounce I was getting from my Canon F-1 decades ago. The diff from my F-1 is the darker section shorter side because it is a horz shutter. I wouldn't think that uneven development wouldn't be so consistent and so straight of a line.
