I am sure my 327 bracket was orange from the factory and that's what I went with when I redid my engine a few years ago. 99.999% of all other small blocks with orange blocks seemed to have black alternator brackets. I have seen one or two other orange-bracket 68/327 trucks show up on this site over the years however.
I've had a couple people over the years tell me I did my bracket up in the wrong color and have had to argue my point.

Below, are three different pictures of 68 engine's I've saved - WITH the orange bracket !!!
The first with 25,000 original miles.
The second with 57,000 original miles.
The third with 89,000 original miles.
I have a few with a black bracket saved too.
