Question correct paint for 65 engine?

I'm rebuilding my 1965 390

Is the intake manifold painted or just natural cast?
How do I get the right gold color for the valve covers and a/f housing?
Lastly is the rest of the block black?
Any sugestions would be great. Thanks Pete

correct paint

The engine is completely black except for the alternator and carburetor which are natural AND the valve covers and air cleaner which are gold.

Go to www.tbirdranch.com, in the left frame, scroll down to Concours Specs and click on the 64-66 model year. This should help you out.
