Paint for my engine

I want to paint my engine but want the paint to match the original car color. Where can I get paint that will match the original color of my 87 that is easy to use for engine painting?

If you get your paint code, you can get Finishmaster to put in a 1 stage or 2 stage aerosol cans....If you need a temperature paint,you could try Eastwood Hi temp coatings...wont be a match to original paint on car, but check 'em out...I believe Finishmaster is still around....
