Magicbox I think I've seen the green engine paint to which you refer. It stands out quite sharply as 'wrong'. Really takes away from the look of the car.

I got some several years ago from either Snyder's or Bert's or Bratton's I don't recall which supplier now, and it is pretty good, matches what was on the car. I broke an engine outlet casting tab using the 'paper matchbook match' process they all talked about in the 70's one day and 'snap'. I got a new one and painted it with that paint and it matched very well.
