Sorry for the multiple posts...I'm getting obsessed about this rust issue.
Here is another Falk engine that has similar though less severe rust:

I suspect the black paint exasperated the rust issue on your 145/1, compared to this engine.
The overtop engine in the photo is for sale for $226.77, if anyone's interested:

Enough for now, I've got to organize supper. Best of luck!
