Honda-SOHC

Bit of info please,  Noticed a couple of things on my 650Z which doesn't seem stock. the engine seems to have had a factory black paint job, any idea's on this one. ie normal. ??  if not what process would i need to go through to get back to stock.
Also the headlight bracket, not original i think.  how hard is it to find original. 
Sorry about all these questions but this is the first time i'v tried  anythink like this.

Thanks Dave.

Thanks Phil, That'll be great.

Thanks Mick, well today we had a go at starrting the bike, its not been going for over 2 years so put new fuel in and drained old (brown) fuel off, After messing about with the carbs plugs etc we managed to get it/her going. needs a new battery though but what a result. I'm not at all mechanical minded but have lots of will power so between me and (also) Dave looking forward to doing a proper job on this bike.

Well due to what can only be described as terrific hangover didn't get out today, although i don't think the temp has got above freezing all day. Managed to get up the Ponderosa (horseshoe pass) boxing day bt besides that roads remain abit dicey so other than riding to work not been out.
