Looking very fine!

An etch primer (they contain phosphoric acid) will hang onto the surface well. As will a good 2k epoxy. Then enough layers of high build primer that you can sand then re-apply until there are no scratches showing. 800 grit, then base coat and clear. Or a single stage. It's looking good. Etch primers grip well to carbon steel, alloys, copper, all sorts of metals.

He removed what corrosion he could and then put some treatment on it(?) Anyhow, no one ever sees the inside.
