Hello everyone,
Who can say if it is necessary to paint the portion of the cylinder head between the cam cover and the intake manifolds on a November 61 car? On the opposite exhaust side, it's certain but I have no trouble finding the info on photos.
Thank you for your help

Loïc,
It seems that indeed the intake side of the cylinder head was also painted although not easily visible.
Here is a detail picture on my car whith traces of paint on the rear part of the side.

On the exhaust side the paint is well all around.
I believe that it is still the original paint.
