I know the engine compartment should be the same color as the body but is the same paint used or some sort of high heat paint, it's for a 72 dodge dart, should the front of the radiator core support and behind the grill be painted body color also or black, if anyone has pictures of theses areas it would be most helpful, thanks.

Ordinary body paint in the engine bay; high-heat paint isnt' necessary and wasn't used. Front of rad support seems to vary by production plant, specific model (how much light gets through the grill) and body color; I have seen and owned low-miles original cars with factory paint that had black, and that had body color. There's probably someone who can nail it down more specifically for you in terms of production date, plant, model, color, etc.
It is all the same paint.
And the core support should be painted flat black except on dark green, dark blue and black cars.
A dude on the assembly line shot it on from below where the bumper would be. And he was not that neat.

And black looks better in my opinion. Mopar Muscle Valiant needs black. toolman
