Yes flywheel , flexplate on engine
Photo taken before inspection plate
As far as the black we replicated everything from the car as it was a 41k mile car

Ok, another Question:

In one underside picture there is blue on the flywheel that matches the engine and an
obviously absent inspection cover. ?I didn't realize engines were painted with the flywheel
in place, I have never seen paint on the flywheel before. ?Was this only done on 'special'
cars? ?and is the inspection cover missing to show the painted flywheel?

Lastly, in this same picture you can see the red oxide that has black over it in random
places based on an overhead spray of the engine compartment. ?I have seen this on original
cars, have you ever found any video or still pictures of this process from the factory on any
Ford model? ?There was clearly a jig/buck/template that laid down from the top to protect
the cowl, and it seems that it might interface with the two loops on the pinch weld. But I
have no proof of this other than signs of missing paint on two cars near those loops.

And thanks for entertaining me here. ?

Hey Marty,

What did you use for the red oxide layer on the undercarriage? ?That is, if you used
some form of paint for actual protection.?
