Rex, I have a Williams receiver sight on my Winchester 9422M. As part of the deal, I got a hooded front sight with a white vertical stripe. Easily the most visible front sight I've ever used that didn't require batteries, especially against a dark background. I think the front sight was by Williams also. Don't see why it wouldn't work with a Lyman peep as well as with a Wms.
My grandfather used to brighten his front sight blade with red paint - but I prefer white, especially when the background is a wad of oak leaves.
