The etrailer.com Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Matte Black Finish part # e98853 is a great choice for the 2020 Toyota Sienna SE. It has the matte black finish like you mention which hides dings and scratches better than the glossy options. The matte black is also more rust and corrosion resistant. It is also a concealed cross tube design so the only portion of the hitch that is visible once installed is the receiver square. I have attached a video and photos for your reference. This hitch will do a great job pulling your SylvanSport GO pop up camper.

Since you are planning on towing you may consider the etrailer ball mount kit # 989900. It comes with 2 ball mounts; one with a 3/4 inch rise or 2 inch drop and one with a 2-3/4 inch rise or 4 inch drop. It also includes a 1-7/8 inch ball, 2 inch ball, hitch pin with clip, and a storage bag. If you are not sure how much rise/drop you may need in a ball mount to tow your trailer level, I recommend to take a look at the helpful article I have attached about how to figure the amount of rise or drop you may need.
