Perhaps someone will come along that really knows but it would surprise me if it was.

The H-pipe is not Titanium, the same H-pipe was used on all models. Below info was taken from the Corvette Museum website. Paul.

Titanium Exhaust System
To further maximize the breathing capabilities of the LS6, and reduce vehicle mass significantly a new titanium exhaust system was developed for the Z06. This marks the first-ever use of titanium in the exhaust system of a mass-production vehicle. The titanium portion of the Z06's exhaust system starts just forward of the rear axle then goes over the top of the axle to the muffler. The entire muffler, all of its internal parts and exterior skin, the outlet pipes, including the exhaust tips, are constructed of titanium.
