The "Deering" was dropped some time during 1949. The Archives says the pictures were taken in 1949. The tractors/cultivators could have been built any time before that. The first picture appears to be fairly early as the hand lift parts, front mounting frames etc. are all blue. It has the "Deering" decal and the long instrument panel (also changed mid-49). The second one is a later tractor as it has no "Deering" on it. It also has hydraulics and all the common lift parts are red. The shanks in both pictures appear black to me.
IH did use methods other than paint to protect some parts, but it was fairly rare back then. Some parts were parkerized, which results in parts that are almost black. I think you will find that on some rear axle shafts where an adjustable rear wheel clamps on. The bar at the hydraulic control lever is a light color, so maybe it was cad plated or similar (maybe the same as the rear rims?). In the case of the shanks, it was ordinary black paint.
