I am trying to confirm the correct finish for the Fuel Line Brace Protector. Should it be Red Oxide or Body color or natural.

Thanks

 About 90% of them are semi gloss black but occasionally will find some bare steel ones. Either is acceptable to me

Yes semi-gloss black for a San Jose 68 ;)

You do have it listed in your signature - we just have to make note of that :)

Thanks Jeff. Yes I am aware of the info in my signature, but just wanted to overstate the obvious. Perhaps on this site I don't need to do that as people actually read the full posts here lol.FYI  I have posted on other sites over the years and have found that some people don't really read what they are replying to and you have to repeat yourself after posting all the info. I can refrain from posting those redundant details moving forward. This site is not like many others I have been on. This site seems to have really knowledgeable people who are willing to help out and actually read the full posts. It is very refreshing and an incredible resource for people in my position undertaking a restoration.

My comment was, in general, to remind all of us (including me) that we need to remember to check the signature since that has been out suggestion and a fairly widely followed practice my most here. No problem with making it easy or redundant by including it in the post since we have been heavy promoters of "include when and where" here on this site and others since it can make so much difference and helps focus everything that follows
