Default 1930 Radiator Shell Hood Hinge Retainer (A-8220-A) Finish

Does anyone have a copy of the print, -or does anyone know specifically what the finish was on the A-8220-A Hood Hinge Retainer?

I would have always thought they would have been stamped out of stainless and then polished to match the sheen of the shell, however it appears this item may have been a carry-over from the Model-T years. In the 28/29 era they would have been Nickle-plated with the shell. Therefore in 1930 (-and maybe '31?) were they CAD plated, -or should they be painted Black (-or??)
