The bellhousings were on the engines when they were painted, so the bellhousing will have varying degrees of paint. Some were painted almost completely, some just had about 3-4 inches of the front edge painted.
On my '74, the bellhousing was almost completely covered, but still had about 2 inches or so towards the rear that did not have any paint on it.
