I wouldn't worry about the rust, junkno. Rust forms when moisture comes in contact with the steel. If I recall Abu Dhabi measures its rainfall in inches per century and where Mean Green is driven, Northwest USA, they measure the rain in feet per day!
I know a grand (U$1,000) can be a lot for a student to bear for an exhaust system. [?]
