these scratches were made when I losened up the drivers motor mount and left the motor rotate down about 2" so I could slightly dent the pipe to clear the frame rail. I understand what your saying about the hardness but the paint in the engine compartment is only 3 days old at the time this was done and it didnt mark up the new white paint. Makes me wonder how well the process was for the coating on my headers. I will try to find the Flitz and see how well that may work. Thanks again for your advice and information.
