I would change it. My mate did the same and he blew the welds on the intake.

I would change it anyway before you take the engine out as it will seize up if its sitting out a car and not being started.

5w30 oil rusts.

Yes but you use your car daily.

Leave it sitting for more than 2 weeks then see what happens.
