1972 plymouth wiring harness detail help

[matt72]

Kind of an odd question but what color tape would be more correct for the engine bay and headlight wire harness? I have seen concourse cars at Chrysler nationals done with black tape but I have tan tape on my harness and have seen NOS ones with tan tape. My problem is I cannot find tan tape to use when I go through my harness so what would be more correct, wait to find tan tape or use black? thanks for looking at my kind of stupid question lol.

It is black for the underhood harnesses it is lighter, thinner, than regular electrical tape.

California car by chance? My May ’72 built, California, RR/GTX originally came with engine, forward lighting and supplemental under-hood harnesses relating to added emissions equipment, all wrapped in tan harness wrap.
A previous discussion on the subject from a while back,
Need a little help with where this wire goes
