No.

And why is the metal blued?

Yet, the flywheel is okay?!

Really?

This is strange. I'm not close to being an expert on these matters, but these photos raise a lot of doubts in my mind. When in doubt, I say one rules in favor of the customer and makes repairs under warranty.

Absent a plausible explanation for how CUSTOMER ABUSE could possibly account for this clutch, it must be rationally concluded that this was the result of mechanical failure uncorrelated with anything the driver may have done. Even the mechanic was, apparently, unable to account for what caused this, what the customer might POSSIBLY have done wrong to account for this damage.

I don't know diddly, but I think the OP has a strong case for full reimbursement here.
