Yes, the SPD's are silver around the outside and top of the pedal. There is a small strip of black that runs down the inside of the pedal which connects to the crank arm.

No covers in the box when I bought a set. I think they'd be a bit small to use as flat pedals to be honest.

Is there any reason I cannot use these on a road bike? I have a pr of shoes with SH51 cleats and don't want to have to buy any more.

No reason not to. They are fine on a road bike. I use them myself as they are better for walking with when of the bike. Road cleats which stand proud of the shoe can be very slippery on some surfaces off the bike. Any recessed cleats (like on most MTB shoes) will be better for walking.

I've read that riders can get 'hot spots' using spds on road bikes. I got some shimano A520s for my road bike, which are spds with a platform. Not too heavy and they look good.

The M540 pedals are lighter and have a simplified built quality making them lighter and more reliable. They both use sealed bearings and Chromoly axles so the difference is small but noticable over the life of the pedal.

Are these compatible with SH56 cleats?
My MTB has M324's using SH56 cleats as I like the ability to get out in a panic (to prevent a nasty fall). I'd like to use these on my MTB but retain the get out in all directions of the SH56 as opposed to the SH51's twist sideways to get out.
