The freeze plugs you did gold were block color (they were screw in type on 427's). Some were Ford blue. Aluminum heads (very popular today but rare in '66) are dull aluminum color. The oil pans were silver cad plate (Aviad) or block color. The rectangular box located on driver side between the chassis rails is the brake master cylinder box. There are two cylinders directly connected below the brake pedal in the car. It should be black sheet metal as was the chassis.
