It is inert in the human body, I cant imagine its poisonous to them, as well aluminum has been used for so many years with canned food, it does not produce a poisonous corrosion as many other metals do.
Constriction on the claws..
I saw many of those bosc and nile monitors before with claws missing taken back to petstores, some lived on carpet but all had something in common, they were kept too dry, on the wrong substrate, it had to due with stress and improper shedding around claws. I guess carpet fibers could doom an already falling apart monitor faster but when at least somewhat healthy they can dig carpet all they want and do no damage (although I dont suggest it).
