Human brains don’t actually have any pain receptors (even though headaches would have you seriously believe otherwise), so a brain alone wouldn’t be able to feel pain any more than it would be able to smell or see.
Might just be that nerve cells by themselves “experience” something when stimulated, but pain perhaps requires certain structures of neurons or even parts of a brain to be interpreted as “pain”. I’m just spitballing though since I’m not a neuroscientist or anything like that.

Wow. Equally confident, equally confused.
The brain processes the information from the nerves.
