RE: Oil breather finish?

[62pluckedchicken@xxxxxxxxx]

Since my engine was painted GM blue at one point in time, I had similar 
questions...

I know turquoise and orange are Mopar engine colors (other colors?).. 
but which colors were on which engines? (i.e. 318, 361, 383, etc)

also I've seen air cleaners in gold, and in black.. any other colors? 
which air-cleaner/VC colors go with which engine block colors?
