DuPont Cor-Lar two-part epoxy paint in white is another good choice, enabling you to easily spot drips from leaks and identify fluid types by their color. One other addition I'd recommend in any areas where the cowling interior surface will be closer than about three inches from a high heat source (headers, collectors, turbos, etc.) is to cover the interior surface locally with the sticky-backed foil-lined 1/4" heat insulation blanket available from Spruce or other sources. Tape the perimeter of the heat blanket down with aluminum heat tape for a nice finished look. These little heat blankets don't have to be very big, but they are really effective in saving your exterior paint from bubbling and other effects of high heat exposure.
