engine help

[mudderphil]

hey there guys i'm getting ready to do an engine swap in my 60 chevy long box its got a 235 inline 6 that has the oil pan missing and one rod cap so not sure the condition of the motor. so im getting ready to use a 235 out of my 54 chevy drag car was wondering if it will work and what is the correct color i should paint the engine for the pickup as the one that is in it has a orange valve cover but there is no color on the rest of it and the one out of the 54 has no color at all but is clean and runs.
