Good question! Mostly it would adversely affect OCD the Iron test in a UOA. Deterioration of the rubber seals would be my primary concern. Cool and dark protects rubber usually.How would rust harm an oil filter?

If the inner cage rusted, that would go to the bearings. Assuming the inner cage was metal, unlike an e-core.How would rust harm an oil filter?
All I've ever seen is surface rust on the steel base plate which does not just wipe off. Not like there are flakes of rust ready to fall off. Have you ever seen rusted inner steel cage on a new filter? I keep mine outside in the shed inside a baggie. Humidly here is terrible unusually. Buy 4-5 years worth of filters at a time.If the inner cage rusted, that would go to the bearings. Assuming the inner cage was metal, unlike an e-core.
Not an issue for me, I buy filters just before an oil change.All I've ever seen is surface rust on the steel base plate which does not just wipe off.

That also puts moisture in the mix, as air coming out your lungs can be moist.3) huff in some CO2 (I chuckled alot at this one)
