eppy node rename method

I want to rename node but in idf file has no node object so i can not use modeleditor.rename(idf, "MATERIAL", "G01a 19mm gypsum board", "peanut butter) and need to manual check for object. Have any other pathway for that task ?

I want to 1 outlet Node at this Branch but other object refer to Node 45 would not be updated. Which is the best way to update name change name of Node 44/45. Node 3/1 in other objects ?
Edited: Has anyway to print out branch node details- .bnd file
for easier reading. But there is no Node Object in my idf.viewer - check node set point manager , inter-loop connection,etc..
