He is wearing black plastic gloves, reference to pre-release HL1 scientists who also had them. Im propably going to try to adjust their materials in the future to make it bit more obvious.
This is fully intentional placement. Engineers do maintain stuff, but calling them "maintenance workers" is an insult quite frankly. He alongside his two buddies upstains, unless Im misremembering and those two require Chapter Overhauls to appear as engineers, are there to make sure everything works correctly. The game implies there have been malfunctions all over the facility whole morning of the incident, its not out of the question for engineers to be around on standby to fix machinery in order to make sure the critical experiment gets done on schedule. Thats why that specific engineer also has clipboard in his hand, he is helping scientists to make sure all the readings are within acceptable boundaries.
This is reference to HL1 Luther having similar strike of white in his hair. I may remaster is in the future but for the time being its staying. Also, as mentioned in the lore, BMCER ignores visuals of HL2 as well so BMCER version of HL2 Eli may look entirely different than he does by default.
That guy is a coward like most of the other scientists you meet, just because he has HEV suit doesnt mean he has the courage to go help Gordon. As for the Gluon gun, just like his friend Ronnie he cant bring himself to use it either.
BMCER depiction of BMRF has rather strict uniform policy so he is keeping his current coveralls. I agree that realistically he would at the very least have upper portion of his coverall wrapped around his waist or something but we dont currently have bodygroup for that and there isnt enough use for one to make creating one worth it.
This is limitation of the game, its unfortunately not possible to change health of an NPC with just model edits. We are going to give him reasonable health boost in BMCER map replacements for sure but for the time being you are just going to have to deal with it.
Another limitation of the game, it also happens with the cigars HECU use. If you feel its too immersion breaking for your taste you are free to edit the character manifest by yourself to remove them on your end.
