Just use a stainless plate on the header and mild steal on the side pipes. Use the same paint on mild steal plate as the side pipe. I think it would work just fine.
Depending on the car, it may not be possible to weld flanges on to the headers. On my ERA for example, each header tube needs to be installed on the car one at a time. If you weld each individual header pipe together to form one solid header per side, you wouldn't be able to install it in the car (at least not without pulling the motor).
