However the SPID is a strong clue that the color might be another GM color from that year (but not usually offered on trucks) or a potentially random "fleet" color, specified by the customer (school bus yellow? power company? do you know anything of the ownership history that might help suggest that?)
The good news is that if you have a spot of good original color (non faded, like interior or underhood) a good modern paint shop will have the tools to match the original color (from a spot on the dash, etc.) using spectral analysis equipment. They can then repaint parts or all of the truck to match (and give you touch up paint, etc.)

I'm the second owner. Truck was a private vehicle no business usage. I'll take the glove box door with me when I get the paint and have them gun it. Sucks no code on anything
