Typically the dark color is the result of a plating over the steel spacer . It can be replicated by black oxide or gun blueing proceeder. The part  was transitioned to the aluminum spacer that was color anodized sometime near or at the 66 model change over . After the transition gold was typically the small block color as mentioned .
