Are the two F bolts in the cases on a 65 FL cad plated or parkerized.

Had my '65 out in the driveway pimping for the Perkiomen meet. Will look at the parts book, but how are you folks seeing rear engine mount bolts with the skid plate installed?? Apologize for my stupidity but figure I just lay on my back and look up? Skid plate is there so can't see engine mount bolts. A photo would be good. Otherwise I'm guessing parked. But a photo would tell me what to look at for Circle F, blah, blah.Ray

Circle F bolts are made by Foster. Foster is easier to type than Circle F.Be sure to visit;

Can anyone post a pic of a parked "Foster" bolt, Folks?
Not to be more than a gadfly, but patinated cad darkens to look a lot like gray parkerizing.
(Parkerizing varied enormously in the first place.)
Thanks in advance,

Fred Werner sent me this photo, Folks!

But without smelling it, I'm not convinced its not cad.
There was a time folks were parkerizing their carb hardware just because it was dark.
Apparently airtight storage can cause the problem with fresh hardware, as I was warned by a supplier to not seal stuff up tight.
