Receps must be approved for Al use. Al wiring is more fragile than Cu. Are you sure it's Al and not tinned Cu?
If you must mess with this I would recommend pigtailing copper conductors to the Al with specially listed Al/Cu wire nuts. Standard devices can then be used.
Also note that (as far as I know...) no manufacturer makes a GFCI that is Copper/Aluminum rated. To install a GFCI you would be required to pigtail.
