Aluminum should fix the warping/blowing out issue with the old elbows that some would experience, but if the o-rings used are prone to fail, then I am sure some of the elbows would still develop leaks.
I am not 100% sure, but I've always been told the ones GM sell are from a different manufacture, it may well be that they are all made by the same company, I just cannot see why they both do not have the same o-rings, I am almost positive the elbows from GM had AC Delco o-rings.

I'm not sure either, but I know we all must agree on one thing, its about DARN time they came out with something different right?!
