Rusted in place, no. But with dissimilar metals isn't there always a
chance of a galvanic reaction sticking them fast just as well?

I have several heads where the headpipe has been torched off and the
stub of it is still held in place by a severely mangled nut. I'll
probably (carefully) cut through the remains of the headpipe, then the
nut with my Dremel if/when I ever need the heads. Cheers,

Charlie
