hi, all.

the engine on my 73 mgb appears to have no paint.  the PO said he had it
steam cleaned several times in the years he had it.  he also said he never
had the engine out of the car or had it replaced.

he bought it when it was about 6 months old, and i bought it from him about
a year ago.

is it likely, then, that the steam cleaning also removed the paint?  is it
possible that the car left the factory with an unpainted engine?

the valve cover, and the cap, were painted silver when i got the car,
perhaps to rectify the steam cleaning?
