I got the answer from Rod at Airstream Customer Service (937-596-6111) within 1 hour of calling and leaving a message (at 3PM on a Friday afternoon) - these people are great!
The answer is:
1980 to 1987 Airstream motorhomes and trailers
Metallic Gray
DuPont Centari 44146-A
But, if you only need a touch up, a 12 oz spray can is available from Airstream for $15.53 (part # 360151).
You can also take that paint code to most any body shop that uses Dupont paints to mix up a 6 oz bottle of it - usually runs around $5 unless of course you have been a frequent customer - then usually they will do it complimentary.
Thanks for finding this out. All of the grey paint on my 345 is shot and needs a strip and re-spray. Its way down on my list of things to fix, repair and improve but I'm glad to know what the exact color should be.

This may be a rumor, but I have also heard that the toolbox gray that Sears sells to repaint their OEM toolboxes is close if not the same color. I think it runs 5-7 bucks a can.
Remember you didn't hear this from me
