Dr. Johnson's book _The 914 & 914/6 Porsche: A Restorer's Guide to Authenticity_ lists all of the colors and paint codes in one of the appendices. There are several green colors over the years, but appears to be only one green each year. Tell me the year and I will look up the color and paint code for you.

This book is worth having as a reference.

Also, PPG maintains a paint code library where they can provide their body shops the recipe to match any original paint, but I think they need the manufacturers paint code first. (There were atleast 10 different pigments in my '75 copper metalic, even though "near" colors only required about half as many).
