Rick, this is a question I asked some years back when building Scheckter's Silverstone '73 car. Although at the time I couldn't get a definitive answer, a few years later I viewed a Yardley M23 at the Goodwood Festival of Speed, guess what, the upper inside of the tunnel was orange. Whether or not this is original though, I do not know.
