I really love your project.  I am a little jealous.  I would love to find a machine in the right condition to do a complete rebuild.

good luck!

Maybe a very thin layer of vaseline around the plug edge to stop the paint sticking to it, so when you remove the plug it does not pull away a small part of the new ;paint around the hole edge

I think I will be pulling plugs right after I finish spraying while paint is wet so even if it's lightly flows into the holes - it will be good.

This spray paint dries pretty fast, like 30 minutes to touch, stops flowing in couple minutes (becomes tacky). Need to organize and move quickly.

Hmm. Received timing belt but not sure if it’s correct? Matched by PN. All sizes match except for width. Is that correct? New one is not as wide

Silicone plugs worked as a charm!! I waited about 30 minutes for paint to be dry to touch and pulled them with sharp pick. This is what I have now. Can start assembly and tinkering tomorrow! You see on a picture pulled plugs

Need to mark oil ports. Nail polish is what you guys use?

Anybody knows about timing belt? Is it OK to use narrow one? I would imagine it should work just as good, but looking for info from people who dealt with it before

No.  Find a Testor's  paint stick.  Looks like a magic marker but it is paint.  Used them for years in red to mark oil holes!
