You are correct - it should be a noun, not a verb

The reason it \"sounds\" right to me to say \"replacements\", like you suggested, is because the items to be replaced, and thus justifying a verb, are not listed that I can see. If it were \"replaces\", then what does each item in the list replace? That is why it sounds funny to me. Of course, that does not mean I am right, but that is how I read it.
