Help--Paint Color Code

My 83 is in the process of getting prepared for paint. Thinking of going with this orange/red color. Is this a Porsche factory color? If so what is the code?
Thanks will post pics soon!

Bahia Red can look orange depending on light and camera. Have you seen the car?

Here are three orange codes from 1970-1973 of Glasurit 22 (21 back then) line.
