Hi Rob:

Looking through my Factory '74 Brochures, the only oranges I find are: Orange; color code 156 and Signal Orange; color code 116.

The last year I find Gulf Orange listed is '73 but Porsche did/does paint-to-sample and one might have found a Gulf Orange one done by special order. The Kardex should show that.

According to the Porsche Red Book, the standard oranges were as Steve mentioned. Under special colors, there was a Gulf blue, but no Gulf orange.
