Olds was not the only one to use colored body mount bushings.
I think all GM divisions used diffrent colors for identification purposes. Example any difference in thickness would require a diffrent color to help an assembly line worker know where to put a particular bushing. Some bushings had no coloring at all, a bunch of GTO's I have taken apart had chevrolet cast into the bushings that were used at the rear of the car. Also this information can be found in the chassis section of some shop manuals. </div></div>

I understand the markings for assembly line identification and final inspection purposes. I have also seen GM P/N molded into these body mount bushings, color coded paint daubs, and color coded painted stripes. But... I have never seen a fully painted body mount bushing on a car during disassambly or for sale in a catalog?

The only place I have noticed the fully painted body mount bushings is recently on high end restorations of 442 W-30 cars???
