It is typical for the exhaust manifold on a heavy duty engine to become hot enough to change color. This is especially true when the engine has been under a continuous heavy load, such as when plowing or discing. The color change is very noticeable after dark - I can remember my father returning from the fields on a JD520, and the glow from the manifold was visible from several hundred yards.
