I, too, noticed the witness mark on the action but not on the barrel. I just thought it may have been left from the military action being re-barreled.

That's what I was thinking for one of the marks, but there seem to be 2. That makes me wonder a bit more.

Like any old gun, the little details, intentional or accidental, always make for interesting speculations that can never be completely resolved.

Have fun with it.

"30 Belgian Mauser" would be the same as 7.65x54 Argentine Mauser and the bore (not groove or bullet) diameter should be closer to 7.7mm than 7.4mm. A chamber cast would sort that also.
