Re: rust in the engine?

If it is inside the engine then it should certainly be flushed out. I 
suspect you are really noticing the anti-freeze in the webbing in the 
center of the motor. When you have leaks on top of the motor the 
anti-freeze collects in the webs and as it is evaporated it leaves a 
residue that looks like brown sand. Dry it out as much as you can and 
then suck it out with a wet-dry vacuum. In extreme cases it could 
corrode the block ruining it in the process. This is why you may have 
anti-freeze leaks and never see any on the floor, it has a large 
resovoir to evaporate in. Before you put the air intake back on finish 
the cooling system, pressurize to 15 psi for 15 min and inspect for 
leaks. It is impossible to see them under the air intake after it is 
reinstalled.
