Thats a strange one as I remember the F1 in 76 being Yellow or Red(as per the ID book). The 2 colours i gave on your other post were US only, is yours an import?

Nobody can tell you what the original colour was, not even Honda, so as long as you stay to a produced colour you will be OK. At least you can get to RS in Barnsley to get the paint! Post the frame number and i will let you know the colour options but do it in the specific bike post not here.

Cant remember wether its 3/16 or 1/4 whit socket (12 point) is a "Hammer Fit" onto a knackered 12mm hex head (filter bolt) and hammereing it on usualy loosens it enough to undo with a bar or ratchet

Well I'm nearer than Matt but not by much, If you get problems putting the engine back together bring it in a box, get here by 10am and take it away tea time (assuming everything is there and in good order!)----Gloucester by the way and yes i can do it in that time i was working on them for a local big dealer in the 70's

If you are doing all the cycle parts it wont look good with a scruffy engine and the chances of chipped powder coat increase every time the engine is lumped in and out.
After powder coating you will need to remove small areas where the RH rear engine plate bolts on and at the coil mountings where the small green wire bolts on or you wont get good earths and electrics will play up.
If you look at the RH rear mounting where the battery earth cable goes you will see it is bare metal, and on inside up against engine case.
If you want a 100% reliable, clean engine get a complete gasket kit; a complets seal kit; cam chain; primary chain; 4 gudgeon pin circlips.
Everything else has to be inspected when apart but is usually OK/
HINT get the Honda manual and read carfully the bit about re-fitting the cam cover VERY carefully or you will bend valves
