Correct green paint for 68 455 flywheel

I just purchased a used flywheel for my 455 68 engine but it came off of a boat engine and it's been painted white. I like to repaint it in the correct original green paint. Does anyone know were I can find a spray can of it?

I don't recall ever seeing paint on the MT flywheel except engine paint overspray perhaps. Maybe by the time they got to me, any vestiges of paint were beyond notice.

I have several stick flywheels and none that I remember have any paint on them or like you say some over spray. But for the best i know no paint on them.

Marine green

The OP doesn't state MT flywheel, in Marine applications most engine are installed in an I/O configuration and use a AT flywheel. Only need the ring gear for starter engagement. So as to his question I have seen some AT flywheels with a greenish yellow overspray on them. When I get home in a week or so I can try to post pics but I cannot help with correct color codes.
