Default Baldwin Gleaner engine appearance

Hello Barners,
I am working on a display for the Museum, concerning the Ford Model A engine as it appeared in the Baldwin Gleaner Combine. Does anyone have any insight as to how the engine would have been painted for use in the combine? Did Ford paint the engine in the standard Model A colors? Was it not painted at all? Did Baldwin paint the engine some color of their choosing? Any information concerning this matter will be helpful.
