The Charger is a manual transmission car so it gets big "0" (zero) on the driver's valve cover. See photos below.

That's a good question because looking at the photos in my book, it looks like black, white (yellow?) and maybe green was used. Let me go check my dozen or so old valve covers in the barn.

OK, the pictures aren't great because the valve covers are pretty dirty and I would rub off the grease pencil trying to clean them. I definitely see black, white and yellow/green on this end.

You're welcome. Obviously, your valve covers will be orange, so black or white marks logical sense. Who knows if there's a color/plant standard? I sure don't. The markings were to let the assembly line workers easily know which engine went in each car. I applaud your efforts at getting your Charger correct!
