One-Stepper wrote:
gM-Wing: (7=6)r8c5 - (6)r8c1 = (6-7)r4c1 = (7)r5c1 => [r5c5]<>7

Code:
 UR (34) [r56c37] => [r5c3]<>4   not needed
 UR (46) [r46c36] => [r6c6]<>4   not needed

Any other URs?

I also had a one-stepper, a very simple AIC loop that exploited a couple of those 49 bivalues:
(4=9)r3c1 - (9)r8c1=(9-4)r9c2=(4)r7c1 - (4=9)r3c1:Loop; r45c1<>49

Actually, it was very easy to see. Each digit of the r9c2 49 has a conjugate link in b7 to the c1 segment of b7. This creates a 49 pseudocell in r78c1 and, in effect, a hidden 49 pair in c1. It is akin to a Sue de Coq, or perhaps a sort of gM-Wing folded back on itself.

Oh good, Asellus introduced loops.

Code:
 (*) strong links on (5): [c1] & [b7]
 (@) strong links on (6): [c1] & [b7]

 (5)r4c1 = (5)r7c1 - (5=6)r9c3 - (6)r8c2 = (6)r4c1 => [r4c1]<>479
 +------------------------------------------------------------------------+
 |  3       7      8      |  9      4      2      |  5      6      1      |
 |  2       6      49     |  7      1      5      |  49     8      3      |
 |  49      5      1      |  6      8      3      |  7      49     2      |
 |------------------------+-----------------------+-----------------------|
 | *56-479@ 249    456    |  28     3      1467   |  149    479    58     |
 |  479     8      349    |  45     57     147    |  1349   2      6      |
 |  1       24     3456   |  28     9      467    |  34     47     58     |
 |------------------------+-----------------------+-----------------------|
 | *45      1      7      |  45     2      8      |  6      3      9      |
 |  69@     3      2      |  1      67     79     |  8      5      4      |
 |  8       49    *56@    |  3      56     49     |  2      1      7      |
 +------------------------------------------------------------------------+
 # 51 eliminations remain

As a friendly forcing net:

Code:
 [r9c3]=5 [r7c1]<>5 [r4c1]=5
                             => [r4c1]<>479
 [r9c3]=6 [r8c1]<>6 [r4c1]=6
