Re: OEM tow hooks - originally painted white??
I would add that there was no place in the assembly plant where they sprayed white paint with both the bumper and the tow hooks present.
Said differently - bumpers were received already painted white.
Tow hooks were received already painted black.
There was no place on the chassis line or the final line where the two were assembled to the frame and then (anything) painted white.
As an aside - I installed tow hooks on the assembly line... for one day. It was part of my engineering student training. Immediately after body drop bumpers were picked by the operator on the RH side of the line and thrown across the pit into my waiting left hand. The bumper was installed and tow hooks added as required in that same assembly operation.
I also managed to drop one on my UAW trainer's foot. He wasn't very happy.
