If it is true what you said - I would not "paint" the motor. I would tear it down and powder coat it considering the rest of the bike is in show room condition. Might as well finish it off correctly.
RIP - Yamahondaman!! You will never be forgotten!
RIP - Sam Brehm!! Gone but NEVER forgotten!
RIP - Sandpuppi101 - You will live on in my mind - I miss you friend!
