So basically the ETA movementis the golden brass color and has the ETA stamp on the movement and the clone is silver in color.

Uh... no.

They all come in either color. Many of the clones have an eta stamp as well.

The differences are often very small and I doubt that either you or I could say for sure from a couple of quick pictures. :D

Easy rule: If you buy a rep, the movement is a rep too, even you buy ETA.

I read somewhere (not on a rep forum) that the Eta silver movements are the ones made is Asia and the gold colored ones are Swiss made. I have no idea if this is true, so if anyone can confirm this, please do.
