Hi Brad,
I'm thinking it may be more sound than it appears. The next time you change oil I'd recommend that you scrape all the rust flakes off and gently tap around on it with a hammer to check for soundness. If it is still viable spray it good with trichloroethane and allow it to dry before coating with POR 15 . I'd follow up with a coat of Fluid Film for self healing protection from stone chips.
