Black paint won't scald nearly as badly as aluminum backed by 200+ degree water. It has to do with thermal capacity.
You bring up a good point about exhaust. My motorcycle has a very exposed exhaust that will give an instant 3rd degree burn if you aren't careful. If I ever figure out how to cost effectively implement an aluminum hood, I'm all over it.
