How were the seat track assemblies  on a 68.5 Dearborn car finished?   Thank you

Its complicated to explain because there are a number of pieces to the tracks and then all the springs, wires and center link. But here are the tracks off my July Dearborn car before cleaaning them up.

The majority of 68 seat tracks are phosphate and oil but they also came painted SG black with the protector plates phosphated like Rich's pic. The car I am currently restoring (May NJ) had phosphate on both driver's side tracks and passenger side had one phosphate and one painted

Notice the rivets holding the track together. The top track looks phosphated and the bottom one has black paint. That seems odd. I took pics of another set I had earlier today but havent downloaded the pics yet. They were also black. I also have a metuchen seat in the other garage so I will look to see if it in fact is all phosphated.
