I'm not an expert on blueing but metal is porous to some degree and perhaps there's decades of oil buildup. Maybe hot bluing would work better. If it's not a super nice gun ain't nothing wrong with a rattle can paint job. If it is nice, maybe cerakote/duracoat will be an option.

So you didn't change the timing belt or the valley pan gasket. How old is the timing belt? Or how many miles? If you're planning on changing the timing belt on these, it's probably the easiest V6 timing belt job there is. You literally don't need any special tools. Just pull the crankshaft pulley off instead of taking off the crankshaft pulley bolt. Just be careful not to strip out the hex bolts.You don't even need cam holding tools as long as you mark the position and don't move them. Be sure to slap in a new Audi thermostat and belt tensioner and pulley, and do a quick pressure test to make sure the heater hoses under the cowl aren't leaking. Probably the previous owner saw some coolant needing replacing and decided it was the head gasket without doing any actual tests.

I'm confused why you would pull the engine without checking the valley pan gasket. 99% of the time that's where oil leaks are coming from. I'd recommend getting on the Quattro World forums so you don't have to do so much extra work.
