Rust on rudder

We have put an offer in on a 1980 morgan 382 and just had the inspection done. There is some rust on the bottom tip and also along the join(you can see rust stains in picture).
Is this something to be concerned about? The surveyor said the rudder felt very solid. He suggested we might want to drill holes to further evaluate.

Thanks,
Laura
