      The bug

      The textures used for the top of the hopper and the side of the hopper contain several regions of unused pixels.

      For the hopper's side texture, this follows 23w14a's fixing of MC-203399, which means the side texture is no longer used on the bottom. Therefore, four rectangles of pixels are not used anywhere on the hopper model.

      For the hopper's top texture, the ring shape was made thicker in 14w10a (from two pixels to three pixels), which is the version that converted hoppers over to proper block models. However, despite this, the newly added innermost ring of pixels never ended up being used at all, and was not removed even after the Texture Update.

      It is therefore possible to remove these four regions from the hopper's side texture, and the innermost ring of pixels from the hopper's top texture, without causing any visual difference to hoppers at all.

      How to fix

      Fixed versions of the texture files for the sides and top of hoppers are attached to this ticket. Fixing this should be as easy as replacing vanilla's current block/hopper_side.png and block/hopper_top.png textures with these fixed textures.

      I've also included Programmer Art versions of these textures, as Programmer Art is also affected by this issue. Programmer Art's fix can be applied in much the same way.

      As these assets are modified versions of Mojang's own game assets, intended as a fix to the game, Mojang have all the rights to use these as a fix. If required for some reason, I give Mojang full permission to use these.
