63 engine parts colors?



While I have the top of my 63 Dodge Polara 383 engine apart, I'm
re-painting everything I can.

For the valve covers, intake manifold and fasteners I've used Mopar
brand engine paint - turquoise.

There's two 3 hole fastener bars and a thin aluminum plate that fasten
down the valley pan, along with a plug wire harness.  These cleaned up
pretty well and appear to have a considerably deeper green shade than
the engine turquoise color.

Were these parts a different color than the engine, manifold and valve
covers?  I'm guessing they should be same.

So, I'm wondering if the turquoise Mopar engine paint I used is
correct since it's noticeably more blue than the greener parts that
appear to have preserved the paint reasonably well.

As always, thanks.
