    Mercruiser 3.0 MPI - Is this the engine block? Is that rust bad?

    Agree, it's fine. Low quality control at Merc is reason it's rusting. The rust will not effect the motor. You could use a wire brush and get as much off as possible, then prime and repaint. If you go to dealer they will do similar at maybe $100 an hour or more
