Regarding the aftermath of Korach's rebellion in Bamidbar 17:1-5, why were the firepans considered 'holy' enough to be used for the Altar, and what specific warning serves as a remembrance for future generations?

They were holy because Moshe touched them; the plates serve as a sign that the Copper Altar must be replaced every generation.
They were holy because they were donated by the princes; the plates serve as a reminder that the rebellion of Korach was forgiven immediately.
They were holy because they were used to offer incense before Hashem; the hammered plates serve as a sign so that no non-descendant of Aharon attempts to burn incense.
They were holy because they were made of pure gold; the plates serve as a sign that only the tribe of Levi can enter the Holy of Holies.

In Parshat Korach (17:1-5), Elazar is told to scatter the coals and hammer the firepans into a covering. According to Rashi, which specific altar was covered, and what is the lesson derived from the phrase "as the Lord spoke by the hand of Moshe (be-yad Moshe) to him"?

The Copper (Outer) Altar was covered; the phrase indicates that Moshe would be the only person allowed to appoint Elazar's successor.
The Golden (Inner) Altar was covered; the phrase means Moshe personally supervised the hammering of the metal to ensure it was thin enough.
The Ark of the Covenant was covered; the phrase serves as a reminder that Moshe's hand was used to split the sea, so he has power over the rebels.
The Copper (Outer) Altar was covered; the phrase hints that those who dispute the Kehunah may be punished with Tzaraat, just as Moshe's hand became white with Tzaraat.
