When I searched aluminized stainless the result only showed aluminized steel.

Look on any GM website or dealer lot, their exhausts are listed as aluminized stainless.

Finally found a data sheet on this 409AL stainless steel. There is also a 439AL version. Basically it is just a Type 1 hot dip aluminum coating provides extended life and additional resistance to automotive muffler condensation and road salt.

Tesla trucks just came out and already rusting. Now that is funny.

If that is it, it works great for GM vehicles.. I had over 237 K, + miles & still OE exhaust..
