Does anyone has a definition of what makes a pressure container an integral part of a rotating mechanical device? If you encapsulate a rotating mechanical device is the container automatically excluded from code requirements?

So, is the encapsulated version excluded from code requirements based on the integration of the air/oil receiver and the compressor (U-1(c))? Or can the same argument apply to separate air/oil receivers?

There are many reason things are constructed to the ASME code. One is safety. Even though items may be constructed in accordance with the "principles" of the ASME code they will not have an ASME code stamp.

Though the receiver may be a "functional" part of the system, the receiver is not a "functional" part of the compressor. The compressor "function" does not rely upon the receiver. The fact that the receiver can function whether encapsulating the pump (as per your described arrangement), or external to the pump, fails the criteria that the component be a "functional requirement" "of the device".
