1970 911T engine bay finish question

Just wondering what the correct finish is for the engine bay on a '70 911T? The car is Tangerine. I looked at many pictures what some have the engine bay finished in body colour, some have them black
What is the correct finish?
Thanks

1970 has a black finished engine bay. For model '73 the factory changed it to body color.

Chassis should be black for wheel wells, engine bay and front boot.

I have a 71 and the boot frunk is original and body color. Engine bay and wheel wells are also original finish and in black.

My 70 has what appears to be factory black in the engine bay and body color in the frunk but the frunk was covered inside in what I assume was dealer undercoat still sticky after 46 years.
