Since I was not inclined to remove my BN7 engine or to remove the manifolds, distributor, etc., I decided to brush paint it. Masking all of the components I didn't want to paint seemed like more work than it was worth. So, I purchased a can of AH Green from Bill Hirsch Auto, Newark, NJ. With postage it cost $52.11. After initially cleaning and painting the portions of the engine I could reach, from time to time have been able to paint more difficult areas as they became exposed. Examples included pulling the radiator to remove and replace the water pump. Also, the removal of the air cleaners to install new brake and clutch master cylinders made it possible to paint under the manifolds. Most recently, I had to remove the tranny cover and the shield above it, affording to a chance to paint the bell housing. All in all, I am pretty pleased with the result, and I have enough paint remaining to paint the engine again twice over. My only failure was painting the copper pipe that returns coolant from the car's heater (the heater is valved off and has never been used). In that case I got some bubbling. While I think most owners leave that pipe bare, I will repaint mine eventually with the high temperature silver paint I used successfully on the manifolds. Hirsch is apparently a well known provider of materials for car restorations, and I am well satisfied with the paint. I was careful to thoroughly mix the paint before use. Hirsch cautions against shaking the can to mix the contents.
