Pinto is a color registry. Paint is AQHA and Appendix QH (thoroughbred) lineage. Parents have to have been a registered Paint, or a AQHA registered horse.
We're just guessing that there isn't anything about Sarah Lee that would indicate she isn't a 'purebred'. But no one knows if she was ever registered, or registerable.
She could probably be registered Pinto, but she isn't the style popular among pinto people. Pintos tend to be Arab or National Show horse in type.

That's one of the reasons that I wanted to see another picture of her close up. I swear she has white around the eye and striped hooves.

Even if not though unless you are in the horse breeding business or showing, does it matter that much? I wanted Okie to ride. I didn't care if he was papered or not. It was just a nice surprise. If they are just pleasure horses is it that important or would I be stuck with a horse no one wanted?
