Petty engine paint color?

Recommended Posts

Building the ‘73 Petty Charger and was looking for info on Hemi engine colors? Was the block dark blue or light blue? Were the heads the same color? 
 

I assume the valve covers were flat black?

What about headers? White or natural steel? 
 

Any under-hood pics for engine bay plumbing/wiring?
 

Any other tips appreciated.
