What is the material that flange is made of? It sure looks like corroded aluminium, but I thought the flange was chrome plated brass.

Anodised aluminium is way cheaper and lighter than plated brass, also consider that probably the chemical processes involved with anodising are also more planet friendly than that nasty chrome plating process.
