Paint inside air cleaner housing

What paint should I use inside my steel aircleaner housing? The whole thing was bead blasted to remove rust and the outside painted with the correct degree of gloss. The inside is bare metal, which will rust eventually due to moist air from the oil tank breather, and the rust will find its way into the idle air bleed and directly into the float chamber through the vent. Not a question of whether, when.

POR-15? Glyptal? Rustoleum Epoxy and forget about it?
