Certain options will change the engines color sometimes. One example is my Roadrunner where it came with A/C and the original 383 is orange, but because it has A/C it could have been blue instead. That's where fender tags and build sheets are useless, because they don't have which color the engine originally. There may be a way of finding out, but it's probably not easy unless it's the original engine and has some of it's original color on it.
