Advanced auto has engine paint labeled "Chevy engine orange" that is what I use, they also have the later GM blue in both colors.

Re: what is the original paint colors for a 250 motor

Re: what is the original paint colors for a 250 motor
On your '68 the complete engine was orange (complete meaning block, head, valve cover, inspection plates, oil pan, and intake), the bell housing is usually orange, the air cleaner, pulleys, fan, motor mounts and engine brackets are black. If you look pretty close at your engine you can tell what color everything came.
