<< about intake manifold paint.    What is the general consensus?  
 Would cleaning and leaving original be the best option?
 
 Also,were 57 235's originally painted gray?  >>

the factory painted it gray with the rest of the engine.  Paint will stay on 
it pretty well.  If you leave it natural it will rust pretty fast.  57 235s 
were painted the same gray as the 216 going back to the 1930s
