That's the cold air injection pump. Don't worry about rust - it gets plenty of moisture in any case.

Yup, Rick is right that is the air pump. I removed mine b/c it kept coming on after I put my test pipe on.

It injects air into the emissions control system to help the catalytic converter warm up faster.
