A light dusting of silver wouldn't do any harm at all. Blocking airflow would take a pretty large amount of paint. I'm a fridge engineer and we spray the condensers and evaporators with an acrylic paint so they are easier to clean next time round. Doesn't affect them at all and they are airflow critical.
i wouldnt paint it due to it holding the heat inside the core, probably a light dusting wont do a lot but the paint will chip easily and look a bigger mess than before you started in no time.
Light dusting of etch primer and then some satin black:thumb
+1 exactly how i done mine.........Though the scaremongers will tell you its a bad thing yet APS actually sell a black core and wrx classic TMIC's were also black.

Painting it probably wont cause issues but stone chips will after a while.
Try polishing it with some metal polish. Its not that viseable under a grill
