Wekapipo guarding with the steel ball: He was hardening his skin to absorb the impact, like Gyo has done to tank bullets before in the story, and I think you pretty much figured it out: I doubt Weakpipo knows how to use the golden rectangle to it's fullest, but it's very possible that the royal guards learned one or two of the Zeppelli's tricks, either by watching them do it or by being taught that specific technique (because the Zeppelli's worked for the royal family). Think of it like learning an instrument: someone can learn to play a song through observation and repetition of the hand movements, but they can never make a good song themselves unless they learn musical theory, scales, and chords (I think of it this way because I tried guitar when I was younger, I just read tabs and learned to play songs I liked, but never learned how to actually make something new because I didn't bother learning all the foundations) Also I've commented this before, but I just want to reiterate that at this point in the story you should try to avoid thinking of the corpse parts as "powering people up", it's more that they are drawn to people who have the POTENTIAL to be a stand user, and once absorbed they will awaken the stand, but it's not like the more parts you get will make your stand stronger, that come only come from personal growth (in Johnny's case, this is him getting better at the spin, and also growing as a person from the days when he was a selfish rich asshole).
