the floor plate is retained more like a polymer mag than any other metal mag i've ever seen

it's made of steel, and there are no markings that i can find.

From the mag body and the follower, it looks like a 5.45 mag. Not sure who the manufacturer is though. All of m 5.45 mags are ASC and the stamping is slightly different near the top.

i dont have any 5.45, but i can load 30 rounds of 5.56 with no problem, and the body has the same dimensions as my aluminum magazines

Then it's definitely not a 5.45 mag. I was just going on the 2x ribs and the fact the front rib looked a little farther back then normal but that's probably an optical illusion.
