The fuel selectors seem to not be included in the state saving list for they always start in Open position.
Is that the expected behaviour?

I don't save the fuel selector positions, no. I can't speak to the Dukes specifically without consulting the owners that helped me with this, but in my flying experience, it's actually quite rare to encounter an aircraft that requires closing the valves after a flight. Many pilots I know of lighter aircraft also don't recommend actuating the valve more than necessary for flight, since any actuations reduce the lifespan of the valve, possibly cutting you off from your source of fuel.
