Were I to build a kit from a milled parts kit, what receiver should I use?
Can parts kits that were originally on a milled receiver, be adapted to use one of the stamped receivers?

Anyone know if it's legal to fill in and remove the Firing Line Eagle logo?  I'm not talking about touching the serial number, just the logo.

Unless it is a Title 2 firearm, everything can go except the serial number. Your state or local laws may differ.

For Title 1 (non-NFA firearms), the following is unlawful:

18 USC Sec. 922

It shall be unlawful for any person knowingly to transport,
   ship, or receive, in interstate or foreign commerce, any firearm
   which has had the importer's or manufacturer's serial number
   removed, obliterated, or altered or to possess or receive any
   firearm which has had the importer's or manufacturer's serial
   number removed, obliterated, or altered and has, at any time, been
   shipped or transported in interstate or foreign commerce.

For Title 2 (NFA) firearms:

26 USC Sec. 5861
Identification of firearms other than destructive devices
     Each manufacturer and importer and anyone making a firearm shall
   identify each firearm, other than a destructive device,
   manufactured, imported, or made by a serial number which may not be
   readily removed, obliterated, or altered, the name of the
   manufacturer, importer, or maker, and such other identification as
   the Secretary may by regulations prescribe.

It shall be unlawful for any person -
     
       (g) to obliterate, remove, change, or alter the serial number
     or other identification of a firearm required by this chapter; or
       (h) to receive or possess a firearm having the serial number or
     other identification required by this chapter obliterated,
     removed, changed, or altered; or
       (i) to receive or possess a firearm which is not identified by
     a serial number as required by this chapter

Other info:

Non-NFA marking requirements
NFA marking requirements

For non-NFA firearms, it is unlawful to remove the serial number. No prohibition is made on the removal of other required markings. For NFA firearms, not only is the removal of the serial number prohibited, but also the removal of other required markings.
