Exhaust Manifold Bolts

Hello -

I decided to take my exhaust manifolds off my 66 K code and clean them up a little. My question is, what color are the manifold bolts supposed to me? They were black on my car, but I have seen them cast color on other cars.

They were originally a darkened heat treated appearance. Once installed, they possibly could have had some engine paint over-spray.
