Any hope for my hub?

Trying to repair this wheelset. The cone on this wheel was pitted but I got a new one. Then I noticed the race was discolored. I tried cleaning it with solvent and a felt wheel on a Dremel tool. That didn't work well.
I thought that if I could disassemble it I might be able to clean and polish the race but I can't get it apart. The video I found said to unscrew it with a 10mm allen wrench but that was a loose fit and it didn't grab on anything.
1. Think I can disassemble this and successfully polish out the race?
2. If not, could I remove and replace the freehub and the built-in race?
This wheel came on a 2011, 26" 8 speed Specialized Rockhopper.
Thanks in advance.
