Question Valve Stem Seal Question

I bought the MS3 and PRC Kit from TSP, and noticed that all my valve stem seals are brown. On LS1HowTo.com it says that my Intake Seals should be black and my Exhaust Seals Brown. Could this be a problem when i go to install my cam and kit?

You'll be just fine. I believe that the black and brown are the gm seals. You have some other aftermarket seal which should be perfectly fine to use.
