Yes, most likely a brass hex nut.Looks like they used the original cylinders from the invisible V8 and not castings judging by the color of the plastic where the paint has chipped off. Also does it appear that there is a bit of color where the little tab that is under the cylinders where they meet, it looks brass to me.

That's NUTS giving them original props & costumes!
Even if there is an attendant!
BIG thanks to roymanns & @chubbsAND doggers
We can see what mortifactor couldn't back in July of 2016 in Japan:
Confirms what he said he saw, I mean no reason to have doubted him at all.
- the back of the bracket is unpainted, same as Luke's blaster
- motor coil bits above the trigger are missing
- nuts to either side of pistons are either brass or zinc plated
- extractor isn't painted
BIG thanks to him AGAIN!

- "The mgc barrel was cut approx 1cm shorter than the edge of the flash hider. Its plugged and the plug is black."
- "Inside the hood of the flash hider is darkened with the same weathering as on the outside."
- "The spacer is made from 2 things"
- "Flash hider is 100% aluminium. The exposed bits had minor scratches on, its definitely aluminium."
I don't have the exact quote, but if you go back & read all mortifactor's posts you see that they are the same diameter, IIRC.Do we have any idea what the smaller spacer material is? Wasn't it slightly larger than the brass/copper spacer?

Also, those pics of your Hoth blaster look scary close to a couple Hoth guns I've done. If I find my old pics, I'll edit the post and add them.
