Matt, it is reasonably common on top instruments for the lining of the centre tenon socket to be metal, especially for articulated G# models, where the tenon socket is inherently weaker. Perhaps more comomon on oboes.
Bradley, in answer to your question, personally I would put this in the category of mind deception, similar to claiming that the nature of the plating on the keys (or dare I sway it, the rotation of the bell) affects the tone.
