The springs included in the Barrow T-Virus Helix Reservoir are steel. (Easily verifed; they're magnetic.) Steel is sufficiently dissimilar from copper/brass/nickel/chromium, and also from aluminium, which will result in galvanic corrosion over time.
Use a high-temperature filament to minimise deformation from water temperatures. PETG is used for hardline tubing, so it should probably be fine.
Despite the fact that the springs look (almost?) entirely compressed, they aren't preventing the reservoir ends from screwing in fully and sealing.
