Jim, you can get the "Green" at O'reilly (sp?) auto parts. Just bought some this week. Found it is almost a perfect match for engine paint on 50 Merc.
It is listed on the spray can "Detroit Green" Engine Enamel.

Thanks Pete, but is that the color it is supposed to be ? Some of mine looks green and some looks blue. I'm thinking green was for the 8V's and the series 60 was blue.

You can purchase that exact color at your local detroit diesel dealer. The part number is # SD1-5237 / detriot diesel blue / 12 oz spray can.
Many of the paints are close but not exact.
Jim, it is supposed to be blue. The clear coat Prevost applies turns it green.
Clear coat on a Diesel engine? Don't know how mine got to be green, but it is. The paint I mentioned in the above post matches the color of my engine. Did Detroit change the color in later year model?
