Default 59A exhaust runner rust through?

I came by a 59A engine and in tearing it down I found rust scales blocking one of the rear exhaust ports when I removed the exhaust manifold. Not knowing the history of the engine, I'm wondering about the probably of rust through in that runner. The rest of the engine is visually crack free. Is there a simple way to test the runner without a full blown pressure test?
