1968 427/435 w TI Alternator Pulley finish

Can someone help me ensure I am reading the judging manual correctly, what finish should my '68 427/435 with TI alternator pulley be? Thanks for any insights. Bill

The pulley was zinc plated. The JG may say cadmium but I believe the original finish was zinc. In any event, the appearance would be essentially indistinguishable. Some folks think that cadmium plating is "dull silver" while zinc plating is "bright silver". That's not the case in reality, though. Zinc can be dull or bright and cadmium can be dull or bright.
