valve cover question

I was just wondering what the correct color is for our valve covers on our tpi engines. I have looked through numerous engine pics and cant find any close ups of clean engines unless they're modified..

85-91 Silver
1992 black

Exactly where they switched is anyone's guess. But generally black is only correct for 92.
