G'day
Have been replacing the inner and outer anodes regularly?
I've got 2 2005 df140's and they look pretty much like new under the hood. Though they have done less than 300 hours which could be a factor
Cheers

MAte I've got some phosphoric acid rust converter that will do the trick. Paint it on and all of that surface rust will turn black as the oxidised metal converts to substance very similar to what it started life as.
I haven't used it on a moving and wearing part like that but it certainly wont hurt. you can grab it off me on the weekend when you come over.
