Default 1959 Manual Tranny BellHousing paint??

I have read everything from "a little Overspray" to" complete: covered Chevy Orange??? Which one and what is correct? What do the Judges look for? - Just a little overspray or completed painted Orange?

I'm also not sure if the T10-BW 4-speed housing is painted or left unpainted?

Thank You in advance

Hugh

59s used a cast iron bellhousing casting number 3733365..I believe they were completely painted Chevy orange at Flint Engine with the rest of the engine. The iron cases on the T-10 were natural .color.
