Light Green ext and alpine green 327?

I'm taking a sample of painted alpine green to the parts store to get it shot with the camera and hopefully get some centari single stage mixed up. What i noticed though is that the alpine green is pretty close to the stock color i chose for the truck "light green" (code 503 if i recall.)

Anyways, we all know that everyone thinks all chevy v8s are orange (someone had even painted mine orange at some point). I'm afraid it's going to look like we just tried to match the engine to the body color but did a bad job of it. I know it's a dumb detail, but it's annoying me to the point where i've considered painting it grey and slapping 283 stickers on it!

Does anyone have any pictures of a clean alpine green motor in a light green truck that i could get a glimpse of? Maybe with all the black underhood it won't "blend in"?
