I believe Ford Dove Grey is a good match.

Ford Dove grey is most commonly used as Ian says above (That is what mine is painted). However, Dove grey is much more of a putty colour than the original which has a slightly blueish tinge. I think Bob Heritage came up with something that was an even closer match to the original, but I can't recall what it is!

As said above, Ford Dove grey is close from an aerosol. I took an original unpainted airbox to a paint supplier to get it matched, he said it was widely available paint used by manufactures of parts etc. the outcome was B. STD 694 Grey. (pretty naff colour really) The prototypes were a duck egg blue colour.
