The chests of mules and donkeys flash red when the mob is damaged

The Bug:

The saddles of horses, mules, and donkeys along with the chests of mules and donkeys, flash red when the mob is damaged.

The saddles/chests on these mobs should not flash red because these objects aren't taking damage; only the mob is.

Steps to Reproduce:

  1. Summon a horse, donkey, and mule by using the commands provided below.

    /summon minecraft:horse ~-3 ~ ~-3 {NoAI:1b,SaddleItem:{id:"minecraft:saddle",Count:1b}}
    /summon minecraft:donkey ~ ~ ~-3 {NoAI:1b,ChestedHorse:1b,SaddleItem:{id:"minecraft:saddle",Count:1b}}
    /summon minecraft:mule ~3 ~ ~-3 {NoAI:1b,ChestedHorse:1b,SaddleItem:{id:"minecraft:saddle",Count:1b}}
  2. Attack each of the mobs and as you do this, watch the mobs' saddles/chests closely.

  3. Take note as to whether or not the saddles/chests flash red.

Observed Behavior:

The saddles/chests flash red.

Expected Behavior:

The saddles/chests would not flash red.

Can confirm in 24w03a

Relates to MC-77302. I'd also like to inform the moderation team of moderators and helpers that MC-256514 has the incorrect issue link. Currently, it states "relates to" instead of "duplicates," causing confusion. I would appreciate it if you could correct this minor error. We are all human, and humans can make mistakes unlike AI.

Thank you. The link has been changed on MC-256514

Every instance of this issue except the chests on mules and donkeys has been fixed in 25w03a.

Are llama chests also affected? This could also be marked as related to MC-279508 and MC-279564 since I assume the core issue is the same (chests are counted as part of the body, rather than additional equipment).
