Default C&L sample tube color rubbed off!

Hey guys!
I'm hoping someone can help.I have a sample tube that I traded a buddy of mine.I've got a sn-95 and am running a orange tube in a 73 mm meter for 24 lb. injectors.I'm swapping to a A9L fox computer and need to change to a blue tube according to C&L's calibration chart.The problem is the color rubbed off the tube my buddy gave me.I measured the opening of this tube and came up with .555.Can anyone confirm I have the right tube?Thanks.
Jeff

Hmm, hopefully someone can tell you. There's a lot of them here with the C&L tubes.

Call 'em. C&L Performance

I bought a used MAF and called them to ask a question and they were extremely helpful. Felt like I was talking to a one man operation.

By the way, I though the paint had rubbed off of mine, but when I looked at it very closely in the right light, it was the gray for 19#.
