Is there actual 3D printing of metals? Last time I checked there was a very difficult process of 3d printing resin-on-dust, then pre-baking the dust-resin form, then soaking it in molten metal. Also it wasn't aluminium.

Yes there is 3D printing of metals. I’ve seen it predominantly in aerospace parts or rocketry
Did you read the article?? They printed a metal propeller for the boat.
