I have noticed on some the crankcase vent tube is painted black and on some its painted the color of the engine. I'm ready to paint mine and I am trying to stay as close to original as I can although this truck will not be a show quality truck. I'm building this truck to be a driver that I get out on nice days. That being said, which color should be factory color?? I'm leaning toward painting it grey, the color of the engine.
Thanks
