I found more of the blue paint on the drivers side front end. I still can't figure out why it is there under the sound deadener/undercoating.

Does appear its under the steering box bolts. Good indication as was previously stated that it was done later in the car's life. Along with the J clip being painted.  Not unusual for owners or repair shops to add undercoating in this case possibly just to hide the new color

It's the only area of the car that I could find it. Seems odd that someone would paint a black car blue
