Was watching the whatsapp chat today around what colour your motor should be.
I think you should consider a retro period colour (not necessarily Leyland) that would tie into the whole theme of your car.
Something that would should off your attention to detail and cleanliness would definitely be a home run in my book.
Maybe a grabber blue from this colour chart (Ford). I think its a shade too dark though.

Otherwise there are these two shades of blue.

Otherwise there is this 0669 colour which with your rocker cover and a few other shiny/chrome bits would work well I think.

Otherwise if you're feeling brave I would maybe consider the purple (0605) with chrome, but then I think you'd have to sticker bomb one or two smaller items in the engine bay to get it to tie into the theme for the rest of the car. I think the purple would work well with the sticker bomb.
