After doing some more research today, I learned that a metal duct may actually have an insulation layer on the inside. That could be what I have in my attic. I'll have to go up there again to check when I have some time. For now, I just wanted to provide an update that you may have to look extra close at a metal duct to tell if it's just a typical metal duct or one with insulation inside.
You have a built-in door blower test with your exhaust fan... it would be interesting to see before-after measurements if you do some air-sealing or cellulose blowing. If you can find an IR camera any leaks would be readily visible if it's hot outside and cool inside.
