The actual throttle body itself wasn't painted.

Keep in mind the code listed is for the body color.
Not sure if that is the same exact paint used on the intake and throttle body plate. Looks pretty close though.
Take a look at this thread, there are a few examples of LT4 engines that show the red.
Side Note: All LT4 Cars got that same throttle body plate, not just the Grand Sport.
