Default Valve covers?!?!?

are the valve covers on our trucks aluminum? I wanted to get an extra set and have them polished if that's the case. Anyone know of an extra set laying around somewhere. And, they would have to be '01 and up so my covers would fit!

They have the bosses in the valve cover for the Escalade/Denali motor cover.

that looks good but do you think it might trap heat?
