Going by the first pic I would say that rust isn’t the only problem that cars got.

Fresh fluid on the ground under a car is usually not a good sign.

i let curiosity get the better of me and removed the heater box (i wanted to check all the seals and core anyway), stuck my iphone with flash up through that passenger vent and started taking photos.
Luckily she showed a clean bill of health but, like many owners, i was a little apprehensive.
give it a shot for peace of mind!
