I have the same starter on two different vehicles. In both cases the battery side terminal was shot while the motor side looked almost new and the plungers were definitely reusable but I replaced them anyway.
Very worthwhile post Art! Don't really think these parts need to be OEM. A deviation from my normal recommendation.

Neither do I. The parts (plunger and contacts) I got from Nations were fine. The OEM terminal kits do include new gaskets and O-rings, but the old ones were fine to reuse.
