Every piece under the hood is original, including fasteners and washers. Fortunately, since everything (and I mean EVERYTHING) was covered in grease, most of the original plating on the fasteners was still intact. I just dropped all of the nuts and bolts into a cup of lacquer thinner and hit them with a toothbrush. Engine box actually looks much better in person than in photos.
