I'm trying to decide if that part needs to be powder coated or not. I wouldn't think it would be but just checking. Thanks

The short answer is yes. The amount that shows depends on the tilt position. When down, almost the entire top shows and very little of the bottom shows. When up, almost the entire bottom shows and very little of the top shows.
