There are several companys that sell the paint and you have to be wary as some are the wrong shades and even wrong color. Usually the engine was painted after assembly. All bolt on items, generator, gen bracket, dist.,starter, air cleaner, crankcase breather tube are black. air cleaner has a decal that is available.
