No, not zinc. These were stamped from sheet steel. Some plants painted the rear differentials black while others were left natural steel while still others had a flash coat of black sprayed over the rear though that was mostly done at the dealership. I left mine all natural because Baltimore cars are known for that and the fact that we found no paint whatsoever on it. As far as other 69's that would depend on the plant.
