Wet olive?

Is this close to the 'wet olive' color of 270 engines?

Looks like the pea green associated with European rebuilds. TM9 has an excellent duplicate of the typical 1940 era GMC engine paints. It is their SC munitions can paint. I have seen it used and it compared to new WWII engine covers.
