    Good afternoon Guys.

    Pulled my 350 a few weeks ago & I noticed yellow spray paint on the block & flexplate.

    Any ideas of what the spray paint might mean?

    Only thing it means is it looks like somebody leaned something up against it and sprayed yellow:cool:

    probably heat from the torque convertor and crank fading the red and it just looks yellow.

    Looks like "Caution yellow" like maybe somebody did touch up on safety guards or something on the assembly lineo_O

    I know that the 350 engine, original, has no yellow paint as indicated in the photos.
