So, this just indentifed that it was torqued? it was just one yellow small blop of paint just above one nut on the housing.
Its quite common for places that do a lot of assembly work to mark nuts that have been torqued down to spec by using a paint pen.

Even to this day I do this working on my own vehicles when I am doing a LOT of assembly on A LOT of things and could forget what I torqued and what I didn't.
