I found this article that says that the cam cover was finished to match.

1989
There were notable changes for all M3s this year, as mid-year improvements included the reintroduction of more conventional halogen headlights, fixed quarter windows, aluminum front control arms, an M-Technic II steering wheel (thicker rim and the “M” logo), and a power bump to 212 hp, even with a catalyst. New-for-’89 options included heated seats and a power glass moonroof. In September, a driver’s airbag became standard for U.S.-spec models, bringing with it a more sedate four-spoke steering wheel.

Much like last year’s Europameister, BMW made two M3 special editions for 1989: The Cecotto (505 units), after factory race ’shoe Johnny Cecotto, and a U.K.-exclusive M3 Ravaglia (25 units). Both models wore the body kit previous seen on the EVO II and were finished in unique colors (Misano Red, Macao Blue, or Nogaro Silver). They also featured a cam cover/intake manifold finished to match. Chrome tailpipes, thin rear-window glass, and a set of 16-inch BBS wheels with black centers rounded out the exterior upgrades, though the Ravaglia went a step further and included an adjustable spoiler. Each special edition received cloth seats and a commemorative interior plaque
