Interesting.  Maybe the guy hasn't got a source of water.  Notice that 
the rust color is not only on the shrouds and chassis parts, but also on 
the plug and dipstick boots.  This seems to me to indicate dust, and not 
rust.  (Which is not to say that there is no rust.)  One would expect a 
rebuilt engine to have shiny protrusions on the heads' intake manifolds 
where the turbo compressor plumbing attaches.  But those are "dusty" 
also.  There seems to be a lot of oil on the surfaces, also.
