Somehow even though I was using one of those toilet snakes with a
plastic sleeve, I managed to leave a few scratch marks on the toilet
bowl where the tip rubbed against the surface. I was surprised that
even without force just a little careless dragging of the tip left
scratches.

The scratches appear as aluminum-colored streaks against the white
bowl and are apparantly superficial (i.e., you can't feel the scratch).

I tried cleaning them with a scrubbing sponge and ajax which removed
some of the marks but still left them visible.

Any suggestions?

Those many not be scratches depending on the
hardness of the metal in the snake. For example
if the metal of the snake was aluminum or soft
iron, those marks would be the metal smear on the
porcelain not a scratch since the porcelain is
harder than the metal. ZLR will probably dissolve
the metal smear and a pumice blocks should rub it off.
