Funny, I was going to paint mine yellow.
It was the color of my block originally, and even the bell housing was yellow.
When I bought paint, it was way too lemon colored.
I prefer light colors for mechanical components that way I can see leaks when they start and put an end to them early on..
Finally I. Decided to paint the block with professional rust oleum stainless steel. I like the bare metal look and the paint is tough.
