What items were bolted onto the engine prior to it being painted at the factory?  I know the exhaust manifolds were bolted on as well as the fuel pump.  What else?  Oil pressure sending unit?  Coolant temp switch?  Spark plug wire holders?

If it matters, the engine in question is a 383 4 bbl. for a manual trans car.
