I would leave the frame vin as it is. There is nothing to be gained by tampering with it and it could cause issues for a future buyer. I tried to spray the stencil and found the paint didn't cover very well. I used a small foam roller and liked the results. You don't mention if the body is on or not I used spray cans to paint the engine while it was in place but if the body is off it might be better to buy a quart of paint and use a spray gun.
