From your pics showing intact paint it doesn't look like those arms were heated to remove the old bushings, and it wouldn't be expected. The shop would've been a cloud of black smoke from burning rubber long before the metallurgy was affected. Map gas will burn off paint pretty easily and it's hard (impossible?) to get a piece that size anywhere near red hot with a standard tip, oxy acetylene torches paint almost instantly
