A lot would depend on the adult child's relationship with the step dad. Have they known each other a long time? Do they know each other at all? If they have a good relationship, they may call whomever their mom or dad. I call my step mom just that. She is my step mom. It's the easiest way to identify the relationship.
If I didn't get on with her, I would probably call her that woman my dad married. It's all relative.
