Chryco is absolutely correct, the bell housing would just have over spray on it when the engine was painted. Seems a lot of people "over restore" parts like painting transmissions, trunk floors and interior metal. The engine exhaust manifolds were on the phone when painted, so they have over spray paint on them (usually burned off after a few heat cycles) and parts of the engine had little to no paint due to the exhaust manifolds blocking.
