The HP seat retainer is also monel. With idea being if the HP seat start caught fire that the retainer could be compromised and AA did not want it to become a projectile.
By 2003 the AA service manual was listing the T1/T1X with a monel piston/swivel retainer. Which coincides with the change to the jet-seat piston. It was 2007 for the T2 which IIRC came that way.
The advertised difference was that the T2X could be both air and nitrox. Whereas the T1/T1X/T2 could be air or nitrox but not both.
Now in real life many, myself included dive a sealed T1/T1x with a monel piston air and nitrox. My suggestion is if you find a T2 in good shape I would have no qualms using it for both air and nitrox.
