If you can leave it a couple of days I should be able to get the definitive answer, and I don’t think all of them go into aluminium either.

Duralac is supposed to be the dog's for anti seize/galvanic prevention, targeting aluminium.

Ok, the answer I got was that they normally use aluminium grease and the old bolts, although if there are signs of corrosion on the threads of the bolts they remove they use new bolts as well as aluminium grease. They also use a little aluminium grease between the joints.

I would recommend Duralac as well as Tef Gel which I use on my Sailing Yacht when fixing anything metal to my Aluminium Mast.
If it works in a Marine Salty environment it will work on the F type.
