Question for the group (not being picky - just trying to learn) about the water pump bolts not being painted orange.

Is there a reason for them not being painted engine color? TIA
Yes, probably should be painted. I didn't have the correct bolts until after the engine was in... Part of the added stress of getting parts to Canada (add a week for shipping and a Saturday to run to the border)
