Brian - H manifolds are all made of cast iron. Any "color" you see on 'em new is paint. And unless it's a special high temperature paint the first time you work the tractor hard the paint burns off. The manifold will then shortly turn rust-colored.

Can't speak for the origin of Steel Wheel Ranch's manifolds. However purchased one a few years ago from Tisco. Though it was made in China and doesn't appear exactly as the original (it's missing the small plugged opening in the intake riser) it fits, works and sounds fine.
