My questions still stand,
Question 1
How many gausse is used to measure permeability and set AL?


Essentially zero.

Question 2.
Can anyone take a stab at how many gausse in a typical FT140-43 toroid
with 8 turns on the secondary, and 34 or 35 turns on the primary used on a
flag antenna with a low level signal.


I won't bother to calculate it because the change in permeability would
be so small you wouldn't be able to measure it. This is a non-problem;
you're wasting your time worrying about it.

On the second question the material can be modified to reflect the material
and turns as needed.


If your circuit is sensitive to a change in a few parts per million of
permeability, it has serious problems. The permeability will change
several orders of magnitude more than that with modest changes in
temperature.
