Hi Guy and list I have just spent the weekend dismantling a late 70's bike with the remnants of a complete black Dura-Ace group.It has belonged to my brother who has ridden it continually so the stuff is well used.Yes it does have a black headset although only the cups are black.The spacers and locknut are chrome.Cant speak for the cable clips though as it has braze-ons.
