[WWI] Belgian Nieuport 23 interior colors?

[Dave Calhoun]

Just wondering after looking at photos of the Belgian Nieuport restoration
it shows that all the metal parts in the interior are painted a light gray
color, and the wooden seat is painted black.  Photos of this same aircraft
appear in the book Nieuport fighters vol. 1 - the Datafile special.  In this
book the metal parts appear to be painted black and the seat is natural
wood.  anyone know what the correct color from the Nieuport factory in 1917
would be?  I like the wooden seat/black control stick and rudder bar better
but not sure what is the most accurate colors, anyone than has any idea
please let me know!
Thanks
Dave Calhoun (who has done several Nieuports already with wooden seat and
black stick following these photos but they were French not Belgian ones)
