Purple, but of course. It's the best color in the world!

What color is the car?
IMO, the valve cover color (and any other major color accents) should be coordinated with and compliment the car's color, it should not "clash" with it. After all, it is all about pleasing the eyes with the hood open and the car's color in view. |

I think to contrast would make it stand out, Yellow or bronze.
