Facebook wants me to log in, so I haven't seen your photos, but
external rust in usually not a problem on those boxes. You might try
some silver spray Rustoleum just to make it look nice. Don't clog up
the drain holes on the bottom; they're there to make sure
condensation can always get out.
If you're concerned, slide the end cover off, pull the plug and take
a look inside.
