Any help would be appreciated.

I went through this a few years back when I rebuilt my engine. There aren't any of the major paint manufacturers (Plasticote, DupliColor, etc) that make "AMC Blue" engine paint anymore. You might be able to find some old NOS cans in the back of a warehouse somewhere.
However, if you can find an auto supply store that mixes paint, there is an AMC color called "Alamosa Aqua" which is essentially "AMC Blue". I had a quart mixed up years back and it worked out great. It should be listed in the early 1970's section of the DuPont Centari paint chip book.
