Interested in the brass nuts, I’ll look in to them (I would think copper is still susceptible to corrosion/deposits, brass just tarnishes) Probably use the zinc anti-seize on the manifold bolts after I tap the two out that broke. Read up on nickel coatings and it seems to provide better protection than anything galvanized

Spanks!

Edit: Other way around on the nickel vs Zinc
