Canadian Engine Block Color

Does anyone have a paint code for the off white color the 1950 Canadian Fords were painted. I scrubbed off some crud for reference.

Thanks

It is a bit of a mystery for sure, I had a bit of the original paint showing on my transmission and the block and a close match is Cummins Beige.
I used Dupli-color CDE1638 Cummins Diesel Beige, it is pretty close to the original color.
IMHO it would be a better match if it had a little more cream color mixed in.
The trani cover is shown twice with the cap of the paint can.
Canadian built '52 F1 w/ C1BA/8RT 239 flathead.

Thanks for the pictures, Cummins Beige seems to be decent match. There has to be someone out there that has a book with the information somewhere.
