Nothing wrong with rust on the rotor or hub. If you had bad rotors, there would be some shaking when you brake.

if you have rust on the distributor rotor change it.
also check to see why your getting moisture in there.
it shouldnt be rounded off. also check the cap pins.

Re: Signs of bad rotor? (IVI)
hmm I just went out and inspect closely and notice that there were a little crack on the cap. It just a little crack though, not much. I guess I should change both of these and hopefully my cel light goes away. No wonder why my cel light comes on everytime it humid outside!

Re: Signs of bad rotor? (sabotage7)
cracked cap your losing electricity in those cracks. what code are you throwing? i dont think there is a code for a bad distributor cap or cracked cap or anything like that.
let me know what code your throwing it could be something completely diffrent.

It a code 63, Secondary o2 sensor. Iono how it could cause that either? I was just wondering because I can't figure how to get the cel to dissapear.
