Dan, it's not the colour that makes a difference under the hood, it's the material and the thickness. If your black ceramic coating is the same material and same thickness as silver ceramic, then the amount of radiated heat from your pipes should be similar.
Colour comes into it if there's another heat source (like the sun). A black coating will soak it up but a light colour will reflect.
Cheers,
Glen
