A real body is used as a sacrafice to summon the soul of the person you want to summon.
Around the sacrafice paper like stuff is assembling and that is forming the body of the person summoned with Edo tensei.
Meaning the sacrafice body is real but the Edo tensei body around it is not.
That is what I understood at least.
The way I interpreted it is his "edo tensei body" is the real body is used as the medium. The paper like substance that forms his appearance isn't a body. When Kabuto did the modifications, he did them to the body, not to that paper stuff. Otherwise Madra shouldn't have Hashirama's face on him anymore since the paper stuff went away upon his revival
