    Most of the galvanic corrosion protection is handled by the anodized layer.

    Anodizing converts the outermost layer of the aluminum into aluminum oxide, which is a great insulator. No electrical connection, no galvanic corrosion. Unless you have a very large break in the anodized finish where it is in contact with steel, you are fine.

    EDIT:
    Anodizing is why you do not worry about steel hammer-trigger pins in aluminum holes, or all those other steel parts attached to the aluminum uppers and lowers . . .
