If so, how is the evidence of this flood visible, when evidence for the supposed global flood about 4350 years ago is not?

That's easy.
If you are hung up on the 4350-year thing, the entire question is silly.

The age of the earth has increased by over 100% since "science" put a number to its formation. That never invalidated that the earth came into existence sometime in the past. The earth is not eternal, no one has suggested that.

Well, neither is the "scientific" (factual) age of the "flood" or "floods".
First things first.

If you are hung up on the 4350-year thing, the entire question is silly.

I'm not "hung up" on the 4350 date; I think the global flood is entirely mythical, with a massive amount of scientific evidence arguing against any such event anywhere close to 4350 years ago.

But the 4350 year date is what I find Biblical scholars and creationists prefer. According to a variety of sources, the date of the global flood was:
