What type of paint to use on the coolant crossover tube?

There is a little bit of rust and a chip there.
I'm bored and want to touch this up.

I just used regular spray paint on mine. It doesn't get all that hot anyway.

A wrinkle black spray paint would probably look best, that's what I plan on doing.

How about a tiny jar of Testors model paint?
Will it take the heat?

Are you just touching up the spot or respraying the entire thing...?

There is a tiny knick/scratch on the tube and some mild surface rust on the plug.
I could just buy a new plug.

My first guess was to just hit the scaratch with a black Sharpie :lol1:
