Jr,
Try http://www.62ford.com/registry/Restoration_Tips.asp. It has sections on the 390 and the 406. The long block is painted black and the valve covers & air cleaner are painted different colors according to the engine size.  For example in '62 the 390 covers and air cleaner were painted argent silver.
