Default 427 dipstick color

Does anyone know the correct color dipstick and tube for a 1966 427/390? I've seen all orange and I've seen all black and I've seen black tube with orange dipstick.
Thanks

Judging Manual say....

'Finish is natural Unplated Metal'...

"The dipstick handle is 'formed from round tubing and have a pink plastic plug in the end of tubing. the plastic plug often turns pink or salmon color due to age. the loop of the handle is entered on the Blade of the dipstick"

There are a lot of dipsticks on this website and they come in many colors.
All are welcome of course, but a few of them can be very funny indeed.

(don't shoot me.)
