      I used a product called e-coat, its made for engine compartments on newer cars and comes in 3 different colors, call your local auto paint supply place and ask for it. it comes in a raddle can , good stuff. The olive color is real close to a lot of tube sheilds like Philco . If you like rust like they do on American  pickers just leave them alone Icon_wave
