Rust around engine for new ISUZU truck

Just indicates the parts or truch was stored in a area subject to salt air, say, like Korea or perhaps on board the ship brining it here. The picture shows external rust that could be easily cleaned off and area painted, don't think its a manufacturing issue, maintenace falls on the owners. The engines in my vechicle do not have any rust showing I would have taken care of it along time ago. Good Luck, but dont expect the dealer to do to much.
Just looks like bare steel. would have beeen nice if they used a bolt with a cad coating, or painted the engine parts

 

The rust is normal. Metal rusts, especially the exhaust manifold

 

What rust? I was expecting to see an ugly rusted hunk of metal. That looks dang near brand new for a 3 year old truck.

 

Seems Nobody paints the bare steel parts on most engine blocks anymore. Start go worry about it when those areas are covered with oil leaks.

 

When there are hot and cold cycles, the paint is gone fairly quickly. Normal use. This isn't even rust. You only see actual paint before it goes into normal use. This is normal.

 

Wire brush hit it with a rattle can of header paint

 

Yup, Buy some silver engine paint at O'Riellys

 

That engine block will probably still exist 30 years from now.
