I decided to do the magnet test and the little magnet I used will not stick to the escutcheon on the 39-40. So, it is probably brass. As far as any paint goes, that is had to tell, but I have so much crusty green tarnish sticking up that I will have to do cleaning no matter what. Now, the escutcheon on my 40-180 looks like brass, but the magnet sticks right to it.
No matter where you go, there you are.
