If you want the engine to look like the original 216, paint it gray. Many vendors sell the gray engine paint. I know Bill Hirsch does, though I haven't bought any from him. Jim Carter's also sells gr

By the way, one follow up to my own message. Be sure you clean out and/or replace the drain tube when cleaning up your cowl vent. Many leaks can be traced to a blocked drain tube. Jeff Nelson 1953 36
