Hi Bill!

I really have no idea myself, but I am on the Triumph mailing list and
will post your question there.  Someone there will hopefully have the
knowledge.

As far as I know, there was no copper colored factory valve cover --
only aluminum(?), chrome, and black.  There may have been more I don't
know
about, or the previous owner (PO) may have painted it to match the car
paint or just in a color he/she liked.

Hang tight -- hopefully some messages will come to you soon.

Good luck!
Keep Triumphing,
