Would a dealership, or the installer have even painted a replacement CE block at all? If they were anything like the mechanics I worked with, they wouldn't have bothered. It would have interfered with their flat rate time. At most, they would have oiled it instead of painting it.

My thoughts are it would depend on the dealership.unless there were specific instructions.

Anyone know of special instructions/process issued by Chevrolet for warranty replacement engines that may have addressed whether the block was to be painted?
