1964 394 Engine Paint

Hi there,
When the question is running around, I am rebuilding my 394 and when I came to the paint job I’m not sure of the colour it was orange or orange/red what do they call it? Is there anyone who has a good picture of an engine that I can use for local dealer to get the right colour?
I have tried to do it in “free hands” but you can see the result here it’s not right!
By the way should the rocket cover be silver or the same as the engine? When I started it was the same as the engine.

Thanks in advance Per Fruck

If you dig around in the tech section for a while you can find confirmation on this. I found it some time ago there. if it is a hi comp engine paint it red, lo comp was green. I don't know what green correlates or would be correct, but ford red is supposed to be an almost perfect match.
