Model B distributor color

Does anyone know the correct distributor color on a 32 B pickup? The one I have is Ford Engine Green, but that does not necessarily mean it was the original color.

thanks in advance

I have 3 and all are black, none had the original bodies with out the slot for the A timing lever so I don't believe they are original.

Re: Model B distributor color

Ford Parts Obsolete used to paint their rebuilt B carbs and distributors engine green, presumably because that's what they had on their shelves...I probably still have some somewhere! But Ford painted them black...
