I seem to be having a rust problem with my new waterblock, its not even a week old and I only had it in my loop for maybe 35 seconds before I had to turn the pump off and disassemble the loop thanks to a leak. Here is a picture of it

As you can see there is one large rust spot and smaller bits of it all over the card, even over the spots that did not even get touched with water(?). I have checked and its not mold so it has to be rust, that or is the finish supposed to come off after even a small amount of use? Im mainly worried about it rusting near the seal and it starting to leak.
So should I just RMA it back? Or will the rust not harm anything?
