Engine color

I have finally gotten to point where i send of my engine for rebuild. my question is what color should everything be painted? I want to go back as close as possible to original it is a 67 with a 283, i know somewhere along the years someone has painted intake and valve covers. Block, oil pan, timing chain cover all appear to be original orange, but what color should valve covers, intake and breather be? thanks for help

Re: Engine color

valve covers and intake should be "Chevrolet orange". the air cleaner should be 60% gloss black.
