That's ugly and there is no excuse for that.

if you are going to accept that I would use some Casey's Aluminum Black. it is not anodizing but oxidizes the aluminum and would protect it from further corrosion...
never push a wrench...
This receiver had a barrel installed on it already. I sent it in with a lose A2 upper, and had them switch the barrel to that; this one was shipped in the same box. In fact they returned these back in the same box I sent them in, and it looks like the bubble wrap is the same too. I can only guess the box took some hard decels in transit, and maybe the tips of the FSB bit into the upper as things shifted around. I don't know what the shop could do if I complained; I doubt they could sent me a new AA upper, and other than that what would they say? Sorry?
Thanks, I'll use the Casey's Aluminum Black to guard against corrosion.

Corrosion is not going to be an issue. Raw aluminum quickly forms an aluminum oxide layer that protects it. Aluminum black just makes it look better.
sounds like painting may be your best and cheapest option....
Duracoat. All the aluma blue products will still not match the receiver.
Hey wes. Make up some story like it happened while you dived for cover during some dangerous adventure.
Seriously, if I could send it back and had the time to wait for it, I would.
Otherwise, Aluminum Black would be my choice. Or a black Sharpie.

“Laws that forbid the carrying of arms disarm only those who are neither inclined nor determined to commit crimes. Such laws make things worse for the assaulted and better for the assailants; they serve rather to encourage than prevent homicides, for an unarmed man may be attacked with greater confidence than an armed man.” –Thomas Jefferson, quoting 18th century criminologist Cesare Beccaria in “On Crimes and Punishment”, 1764
