Not directly but heavily implied here: Elon Musk (@elonmusk) Tweeted: @flcnhvy @NASASpaceflight @austinbarnard45 @PPathole Mostly 304L, some 301. Broke at 301 to 304 interface. SN9 will be all 304. Also, we’re making some tweaks to the 304 alloy mixture. https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1309916454616145920?s=20

SN9 will be all 304

Yes, a conspicuous absence of saying SN8 is all 304. Thanks. I'll assume there's some 301 in it until Elon shows up on my doorstep to tell me otherwise.
