Was changing the oil filter and noticed this... the bottom of the block is seriously rusting.. cant find the leak yet. Anyone else see anything like this? Slightly shocked for a 2012...

My '12 looks roughly the same way. Its just years of dirt, debris, hot, cold etc wearing away the top coat.

Anyone know what the sensor is on the right? I know the one closer to the filter is oil pressure, but I think the one above it is whats leaking...
