I thought manual trans cars were painted with the bell housing bolted to the engine.

This one happens to be an auto trans car. I have 4 original bolts, but they have been sand blasted. Do either of you know what the correct finish on them should be? Thanks.

Here are the bolts typically sold for restorations, they're black phosphated.
