that's really hard to say when to replace the mount...what you may have is slight surface rust...cleaning it off and repainting might just end the rust flakes......
.it isn't hard to replace if you have the tools..something to lift the engine off it's mount.(note ..don't use a jack..they tend to push thru the fiberglass.)..so a hoist would be recommended....then just 4 bolts holding it to the engine and a couple holding it to the transom....hope this helps.....
