It depends how you changed the Time Machine drive's icon and what the
"original" drive icon was.

If you changed the original icon the correct way (by pasting it into
the Info window), then the original drive icon that comes with Mac OS X
will still be there:
    - click on the internal drive on the Desktop or in a 
      Finder window,
    - press Command-I (or choose Get Info from the File menu)
      to open up the Info window, 
    - click on the drive's icon in that window,
    - perform a Cut (Command-X or from the Edit menu)
      and the original OS icon should reappear.
