Ok, Thanks guys for the info so far. So I'm at least looking at a repainted engine, probably a rebuilt.

As I had metioned, I had never paid much attention to the exhaust manifold, I always thought it was rust-colored. In close examination today, I saw faint traces of grey paint on it, but the engine is green, and in nice shape.

I'll update this weekend after I hed to the gargage tomorrow with my engine serial number. I just got a package from Hirsch- Semi-Sealed Beam Halogens. I hope I can put those in this weekend but I'm working shift work, so it may not be till Monday. I have a load of minor work to do ahead of the All-Packard Swap Meet in Md. in May.
