Get hold of rmar (Ronnie) on the board. He does coatings and I'm sure he could use the business.
 
Had this happen to mine

mine has some silver powder coating peeling off it.

It is probably flaking off the bottom also--not good for bearings.
Took me a while to figure out why my bearings would have contaminates imbedded in them knowing it went together CLEAN. Finally blasted ALL the coating off and just sprayed painted the top part. Problem solved !!!
 
here are a couple intake pix... the closeup is both the flaking and the original color... it is almost like a powder coat silver, and the aluminum underneath is a little darker...
