Interesting that the short blocks and heads were already painted orange prior to final assembly.........unless this is some sort of post production test/validation area?

I thought the same thing and am betting that is exactly what is taking place especially since there appears to be a transmission in the upper left as well. You can also see what appears to be rusty water that has dripped from one of the blocks and the exhaust manifolds look to have had the paint burned off. I am pretty sure this area is a tear down and review area and not an assembly area.

This is the Tonawanda tear-down room, IIRC.

The Arlington video is from 1972 Cutlass and Chevelle builds. We had a new one in 1972, it may have been on that line.
