This is pretty much what I do.

I have one server behind a NAT with two views: internal, resolving, has
all internal names - external, not resolving, has the master for my zones.

My DNS provider slaves my zones off the master on my LAN, I have not put
my master's IP in the zone data, what is in the file is not important.
Slaves transfer the zone data, not the file. I just checked and can not
find any trace of my IP in the output from the public servers.

I can check in my log when the slaves transfer the data, I have not had
any case where data ran out, set TTLs high enough.

I see a major panic when my ISP gives me a new IP (happens rarely, but
has happened), then I need to tell the slaves that a new master is in
place, can be done, but must be done right for this provider.
