It's almost certainly zinc rather than aluminum. The only time aluminum cents were made was 1974, and these were experimental pieces never put into circulation.
Since 1982 US cents have been made of copper-plated zinc. If the copper plating was removed (e.g. by dipping it in acid) the silver-colored zinc will show.
Compare the coin's weight to a standard cent minted after 1982. If they're the same, your coin is just an unplated zinc penny. An aluminum cent would weigh only about 1/3 as much as its zinc counterpart.

Were their ever a 1976 d aluminum penny made as I have seen one with my own two eyes?
Most likely you have seen a fake. Someone probably electroplated an ordinary 1976 d penny with silver or aluminum. Check its weight. Aluminum is light, less than 1/3rd the density of copper. Compare its weight with a copper penny. If the "aluminum" penny is just as heavy, then it is a electroplated penny. If it is light, then it is a complete fake.

What is the value of a 1943 wheat silver or aluminum penny?
It's zinc-coated steel, not aluminum or silver(*). Copper was needed to make ammunition so in 1943 the mint made pennies out of scrap steel instead of bronze. About a billion were struck and a lot of them were saved so they don't have much extra value. In average condition they're worth about a quarter, plus or minus. (*) If you consider it for a minute, a silver penny would have been worth more than a dime and an aluminum penny would be so light it would blow away in a slight breeze, so it couldn't be either of those metals.
