Presuming mine is aluminum; a magnet does not stick to it. Maybe the ones you have seen have had the hoods replaced from collision damage?
Anyway, I swapped the springs because a quick visual showed the ones on the JY hinges were thicker gauge.

Nothing exciting to see, trailing edges of the hood bent slightly, some scratches on the windshield cowl, bentup hinges. Hinges already in the recycle bin, everything else smoothed out. What I can't figure out is how the hood sprung the second (safety) latch.
