a pic would help but unless it is leaking or you notice a change in gas mileage or throttle response i would think it would be fine.

Default

you could use a wire wheel on it to remove the surface rust, but it will just rust again eventually. as mentioned, surface rust won't hurt its performance.

If you want it to stay looking new, remove all the rust, spray it with self etching primer, then paint it silver.
