The primary reference article is in this thread:
http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=392554


it reads that different factories used different colors/tints, and the color of the engine depends on the trim/option level of the truck. it also reads that engine colors were especially variable on the 283..

My truck belonged to my grandfather who bought it new in 1966. I do not have a good shot of the engine color, but I assure you it is blue/green.
