Default What paint for an air cooled engine?

I am rebuilding the Guzzi V-Twin for my Pembleton. Originally it was (badly) powder coated but this is long past its best. Does anybody have any advice of what paint I should use on the crankcase? Being air cooled it will get quite a bit warmer than a water cooled block. Also, it's alluminium so I suppose it will need an etch primer if the paint is to be long lasting?

Paint for the barrels and heads is less of a problem as there seems to be plenty of paint on offer specifc to that use.

Thanks for any advice

Robin
