That is the question. The Osbourn assembly manuals tell you what type of plating is on the bolt. The AMK and originals match that, but, seems some get engine blue and some don't.
1) The black stamped metal alternator brackets: The two for the upper mount, on the water pump side. Are they both blue paint?
And the belt tensioner bracket, does the one on the water pump get blue paint?
2) The power steering black stamped bracket: the water pump side, the upper bolt is plated, but do you also paint it engine blue? Same for the lower cadmium plated bolt to the water pump, is that painted or natural?
I ask because I don't understand Ford's mumbo-jumbo in the manual. I know the engine was assembled and the accessories put on elsewhere.
As always, thanks.
