Evaporust by the barrel?
First follow-up to post #29:
Pulled out the overflow bottle bracket that was covered in rust (on one side). Hosed it off (the molasses was not very sticky-almost ran off by itself). Dried it with a paper towel. Did not notice any surface rust forming immediately. Submersion time was about 48 hours. All the rust seems to be gone. There was some minor pitting in one area (from the rust).
