                        I posted a topic recently on Bristol Exhaust Colours. I bet there would be similarities in the colours of these things.

                        "What young man could possibly be bored
                        with a uniform to wear,
                        a fast aeroplane to fly,
                        and something to shoot at?"

                        The superchargers on the P-38 should be rust color, just like the ones on the underside of the B-17 engine nacelles. Wink [;)] Look at any color photo and you can see this, even on new aircraft. It only took a few days for the bare metal to acquire this patina.
