I have a number of these in different brands from TV control boards. I looked up the numbers on it and it's called an IC. The board in it pops out of the plastic cover. The board itself is about 1/16" thick aluminum. How do I classify these? I'll send them without the plastic.

As long as it’s not metal they should be fine in high peripheral.

That's part of the question. When you say "metal" are you talking STEEL, or any metal? The board that all of these components are attached to is aluminum.

The heatsink metal. Usually has a glob of messy thermal paste on it. That needs to be off if you want the best price for what's there.

But then you also lose weight. So may or may not be worth it.
