There is currently no way to retrieve metadata in ArcGIS format using ArcREST.

Following the documentation , .metadata("default") should return metadata in in ArcGIS metadata format but it returns them as ISO-19139.

The API returns ISO-19139 as default format. It returns ArcGIS metadata format only if no format parameter is set.

ISO 19139 Metadata Implementation Specification GML3.2 is the default in ArcGIS Online it appears. I'll update the help in the function. Thanks for letting me know this changed.
