MMM. Oxygen Oxides metals. Air Cntains Oxygen. Not to much you can do about that.

You really had to ask if steel was supposed to rust. Doesn't matter if it's new. Could have sat on a frieght truck, shelf, boat, plane for 30year before it was every bought.

Re: Rusting on manifold
 

Brush it off. It looks like minor surface rust. Not anything to be concerned about yet. And, I would say it's cast, not forged. :P
