I am cleaning the pumpkin on my '71, it is nasty cause I drive it. 
I noticed that on the top front of the carrier there is a blue stripe of paint and the head of the pinion has the same color of GM blue.
The back half is what stopped me. Small brushing revealed Chev Orange on the rear case. This is the original unit as I am the only owner. I have never had the diff apart or touched by anyone.
It is like a Archeological dig here, I stopped everything. I will take pictures for myself, but my question is is it important in any way? Should I reproduce this look after the cleanup? Thanks
