If you are talking about the pin in the rear flange on the transmission input shaft, then my best guess would be a heavy duty spiral pin.

I've never seen an aluminum coupler.
I think the flywheel cup is aluminum but the actual coupler is steel, at least the one i have on my 129 and the pin isn't a dowel pin or a roll pin its a spiral pin!!
