    I have seen a lot of grey engines in pictures but I’m wondering if that’s the only color they were. Mine seems to have been a dull green. I like the green better than grey but I also want the truck to be correct when complete. I don’t think the engine has ever been repainted so Im not sure which way to go. Anybody else out there seen anything other than grey?
    Thanks

    After cleaning up my oil pan it looks like it was an army green color.
