5000 to 5200 is optimal for your newer 75 HP.
There are no yearly designations and haven't been since 2012. Even before then the other outboard manufacturers eliminate calling engines by year. Everything is by model number now.

What is your opinion on stainless vs aluminum for this set up?
You do not have a performance boat so the choice is yours. If you run in a muddy or sandy area, the stainless is better and will last longer. If you run in a rocky area, the aluminum props are cheaper.

5400-6000 rpm is the operating range -- 5600-5800 rpm is ideal for all around best performance and economy
