I think the stays have pins at both ends. If it was me doing the work, after paint stripping- off to the plater to have the chrome removed.
Chrome and hot enough to take things apart- toxic
Many frame builders tend to like to grind the pieces out/off rather than heating to remove.
Lots of flux, working outdoors, mask, etc, and one should be able to work around the chrome on the remaining parts.
