Painting colors for fine details on a sherman (shermanfreak this ones for you)

On my sherman I am running into a paint question. First of all the periscopes that are located under the hatches are painted what color. Second of all the windows around the late style coupula are what color. Thank you in advanced

First there is a holder for the periscopes ..... usually O.D. Then the periscopes themselves are either all black or O.D. down to the lens part which would be black.
The vision blocks in the cupola are kind of a smokey dark green to black in colour. I usually just paint them with gunmetal. after all the weathering is done,, it's hard to tell exactly what colour they are anyways.
Happy Modelling and God Bless Robert
