With my tin/rust comment i could link you some pic's but the links won't work.
Vortech cracked wet side casings with rust - high tin
I guess 304 stainless in those earlier bolt together impeller housings on the jebao's rusting - high tin
Rusted screws under heater rubbers - tin
Rusted wing nuts on floats - tin
Maybe it's not the rust that is the tin but what ever is leeching/corroding out with it & the rust is just a sign

Tin is not an alloying element or anything in any of the materials used in this hobby... There is no tin in them at all..
If you are finding elevated tin levels and rusted items thats just a coincidence and one is not related to the other..
