Off the wall redneck engineering is like the kid I went to Wyotech with that had an old Dodge pickup, from the 70s I think. His front crank seal leaked, and rather than fix it, he hung a coffee can from the front axle to catch the drips, and after class he'd pour the oil back in his engine, re-hang the can, and drive home. ..
You could wire brush the rust off and give it a good coat of POR-15, that'll keep it from rusting any further.
