Grey is probably the most common machine tool color and that isn't an option. You might have also included "factory" as a color. The few times I've painted a machine it has been touch ups and I've tried to match its original color or at least close to it.
 
I have been using Smoke Grey that is lighter than the darker machine greys. It's sold under the Industrial Choice brand by Rust-Oleum. Very nice color. It's # 1688830.

Hammered blue. Blue is almost in the lead despite all the die hard greyers.IMG_20220922_080846897_HDR.jpg
 
I'm late to this party.
I didn't read the thread because I can't believe GRAY isn't a choice in the survey.
Both Light Machine Gray and Dark Machine Gray are off-the-shelf available in the Rust-Oleum brand rattle cans, for instance.
Tractor supply sells implement paint gallons of Massey Ferguson Gray from at least two brands.
