According to Chevrolet Engineering drawing 3813005, the cover is made of
A.I.S.I. 1008 or 1010 Terne plate steel GM 174-M
.042-.052 with optional plating: electro-zink plated.  Part must withstand
24 hours exposure to salt spray.
I guess if it made it thru 24 hours it could rust out on the second day and
be OK!!!
