Engine painting and detail. (Tutorials or tips?)

Hey,
There is alot of great tips and tutorials in the FAQs.
Aside from those does anyone know of any tutorials or tips they can give on engine work?
I've seen examples throughout the forum and the detail and realism is just mind blowing....
Like the discolored exhausts from heat and titanium tips for example...

Can anyone give some hints or point me to some tutorials if there is one or give a rough description of how they work on engines and the likes.

I am most curious on using airbrush or brush for engine components?
And what the best paints r for realistic metal replication...
Currently I am using brush Testor Metalisers...
And what colours r good to have in your collection for generic use on detailing engines (As insruction manuals just say "silver" or "metallic grey" or "gold" etc etc)

Thanks all!
