rocker cover color?

does anyone know what the color is called that the rocker covers on 302 clevos were painted? it was a red/orange color to differentiate from the 351. i have a 302 clevo that someone tried to disguise as a 351 and would like to restore the original color covers. thanks.

Does it have the orange underneath still? If not can you get some that have the colour still.

I recently got some work done on my car and its a 302. I have done lots of research and You can not buy the paint in cans, nothing matches it (some are close but I think close is not good enough). If you are looking for close the chevy orange in VHF is sort of close.

As a result I went to a paint shop who matched the paint and sprayed them, it cost about $70 each which is a bit rich but at the end of the day worth it if done right. Hope this helps
