They were painted "mostly" after assembly. But, you will get a better job painting disassembled. I completely disassemble -- everything that will come off is removed. You can touch up the bolts with a small brush, they will be virtually unnoticeable. At least remove the distributer, air cleaner, oil filter, etc, as you cannot get uniform coverage on the back side or on the block if you leave them on. The hoses and belts were likely painted on the tractor, to me, new black hoses and belts look better than the way IH did it. But, it's a matter of personal preference. IH did not emphasize paint, and shortcutted a lot of things because it was easier and cheaper.
