Default Canadian 1950 F-47 (F1) V8 Engine Color

The Canadian F-47s engine blocks were painted a beige color in 1950.
Does anyone know what the exact color is?

I know some people have been using Cummins Beige.

I've been wondering if Ford sprayed the blocks with the same Tuscan Tan they used on the front grill that year.

I've attached a couple pictures.
One is from a picture I found on the internet of a Canadian truck with the correct color, and the other is a picture of my transmission with the remains of the original paint.

Any help would be appreciated!
