More than likely the rust is coming from the chassis somewhere but leaking through the marker light. Rust is associated with ferrous metals (steel, iron, etc), which means the chassis, engine, etc is getting wet.
Since aluminum does not rust (which is probably what the metal parts of the marker light is made of), I'd guess the light fixture is just acting as a conduit for a leak somewhere - perhaps around the windshield,etc.
