Just a suggestion, you do what you think looks good cause that's all that matters.

Paint the engine along with the rest. It brings everything together and blends nicely.
No need for high temp paint on the engine case. Whatever you paint the bike with will work just fine. I usually don't paint the cylinder or cylinder head but I have and the paint was not compromised by the engine heat, even close to the exhaust manifold.

Great build it is already a beautiful bike can't wait to see it with the paint and saddle bags. People will comment about the saddle bags and how they add to the look. I get complements on mine every time i have it out.
