Those are the good clips with the guard on the inside. Ok, its not just the flats of the sides and the worm that cuts, but also the worm drive holes. Ive seen them grab the silicone and dig in, creating a series of angled cuts in the outer skin of the hose. Silicone is really soft. Anyway no worries, just my 2c

I have used these before and they have not caused any damage to the hoses.
I guess other versions can cause the damage you describe as some are quite rough where they are manufactured.
I have not seen any damage so far from these clamps, but will keep an eye on them.

Due to unforeseen circumstances, dex46 does not need this bike, so it will be available once completed.

Please, how do you make this black? Is it paint or a special treatment ?

It is an electro-plating process that is 3 times more protective than Zinc plating. Same price as Zinc Plating :-)

The black plating does look good
I've got 5L of it in the garage
As far as I know it's chromate based like the original olive drab
