they may be galvanised. I would like some strong replacements, though it would be ideal if they could also match the finish.
You might struggle to find galvanised spokes. They still exist, but the superiority of stainless and the minimal price differential means that only the most penny pinching OEMs actually buy them. You can easily find plain gauge DT, Sapim or ACI stainless spokes from one of the favoured shops listed in this thread.

The original spokes are a dull grey finish shown in the photo below so they may be galvanised. I would like some strong replacements, though it would be ideal if they could also match the finish.
