You can also use ESC:
C-M-\ can be typed as ESC C-\

It does here. Are you sure it acts differently from C-M-\?
(While trying out, I found that `indent-region' doesn't always indent,
but its docs (C-h k ESC C-\) tell you how it determines if and to where
it indents.)
Actually, you can force it to indent using a prefix arg:
C-u 4 C-M-\ ;; indent to 4th column
C-u 4 C-[ C-\ ;; ditto
C-u 4 ESC C-\ ;; ditto
