For a truly authentic/original look you could add the engine markings that would have been there when the car left Coventry. They are on the right side of the block, just above the starter. Here is a pic of what's left of the one on my TR4:
Looks like they were painted by someone dipping their index finger in a pot of red-orange paint. "TR" on the top line and a "4" beneath it. I have heard of similar markings on unmolested TR3 engines though I have not yet seen them on one.
