Was probably left sitting in a puddle / scrapyard at some point in its life. 
I've had reasonable success (cosmetically) repairing this sort of pitting with aluminium-filled epoxy putty in the past (Wilko used to sell it). It won't blend perfectly but doesn't look too bad and will stay stuck. 
I doubt you will encounter strength / leakage issues with that degree of pitting.
