Question on original primer

Previously I thought my hood was mostly covered in surface rust along with a couple of spots peaking through here and there, but after giving it a good wash for the first time today I think it might mostly be primer. So... would the original primer have been a dark reddish brown under the Wind Blue?

Yes that's the factory primer. Its also high in lead so caution and common sense should be used if sanding.
