    The 25 I’m working on had the nickel plating on the cylinders, brass driveshaft, copper water lines and the brass water pump that sits on the aluminum gear casing . I didn’t see any plating on the gear casing unless it wore off like most of the other items mentioned. Depends on what type of restoration your trying to achieve. I chose to remove all the plating and shine the metal up. Others clean them up best they can to keep them more original.
