Amoung my many mini projects g

Amoung my many mini projects going on with my new to me boat I am wanting to repaint the out drive.

my plan is to wetsand it down smooth then paint it with what mercruiser painted it from the factory with.

where do I find the factory correct finish products? what will I need just a spray can all in one paint deal or do they offer a primer etc then a top coat...I want it to look right as in good as it did from mercruiser in 1984..

this is on an alpha 1 gen 1
