Hi Dave. If it’s green. Which I can’t tell from your photo it might be a type of plating it was on jap bikes years ago some type of cadmium
If you want to paint go to a good quality paint shop and they can actually scan the. Oli ur now and mix to suit. And either give you a pot or do it in an aerosol
Hope that helps[GROWING OLD IS COMPULSARY ---- GROWING UP IS OPTIONAL

Its a really dark olive green but as you say difficult to see in the picture, I will try and get it scanned when paint supplies are back open

Thanks and welcome to the forum.
I found another picture from an E30 build by a UK garage,
colour looks different to the new pipe I have which appears darker. I cant see a ral colour that's as dark but the nearest appears to be 6006
