Freshly painted gray engine cover on an engine block with Dupli-…

This WP was relatively new, but its back plate had some rust. I painted both inside & out (Duplicolor Engine New Ford Gray DE1611 for the steel parts; Duplicolor Engine Aluminum Cast Coat DE1650 for the Aluminum), sprayed CopperCoat 401612 (or Permatex 80697) on both gaskets, and assembled it with blue threadlocker. Another good sealant is Permatex 20539 Indian Head Shellac.
