My quote: IN OOP, pg 704 Ron said why are you grinning? "I'm not," said
Harry quickly, looking down at his Transfiguration notes and
attempting to straighten his face. The truth was that Ron had just
reminded Harry forcibly of another GRYFFINDOR Quidditch player who had
once sat rumpling his hair under this very tree. I'm just glad we
won, that's all. 
 
End quote: 
 
Tj again. This is when Harry is thinking about his Father James. Ron
ruffling his hair made Harry think of James. I think that he chould
tell what house he was in. Don't the houses all have
different colors. That's how they tell each other apart.  
 
 Me 

No the houses don't have different colours and they can't tell one another
apart - that's why they mistook Penelope for being a Slytherin in CoS.

As I said earlier  belive they were all in Gryffindor and I also believe the
quote you gave supports that, but all it actually shows us is that Harry
assumes James was a gryffindor. We don't know how he arrived at this
conclusion
