Default Purple 302 block

Looking at my engine bay today, noticed that most of the blue paint was gone from the block, then I got looking closer at it and under the blue paint is purple paint. Could this be a primer that ford used, or did, at some point, an idiot paint the bare block purple?

Some idiot painted the block purple That, or you could be looking at some paint pen markings on the block, although I thought those were mostly yellow...
