The original MPP shrouds seem to be casted parts anyway ... and we know the propguys in those days did not shy away from casting multiples ... think Darth Vader helmets for ROTJ hence it's quite possible a non-rust-proof alloy was used to cast another shroud from a mold made of i.e. sand? Which is quite common practice with jewellery makers today.
