The water pump should be painted engine blue.  Here are some other tips on correct color for the 49 331 OHV V8.

fan blade: black
fan pulley: blue
generator adj. arm: engine blue
valve covers: engine blue with white painted (or decal) Cadillac script and bars
oil filler cap: black
air cleaner: black
