This is a new silver Bosch coil - is this normal?

Bruce,

Not the silver colour of the coil!
The Water Boxer coil was black in colour, even the replacements.
May have changed over the years�?
The alternative part numbers for ignition coils are long and full of errors.

Coils DO run hot to the touch but, not skin burning hot... from my experience.

Check the part number on your silver coil, against what our list vendors are offering..

Happy hot coil running� 
Cook dinner on it while driving?
