Here's a really easy fix. Clean the pulley groove out thoroughly with emery cloth on the tip of a screw driver while she's running. Then clean out any debris with brake cleaner and allow to dry. Then spray teflon grease into the groove liberally and run engine briefly to coat the pulley thoroughly.
You'll never see any rust again if you re-apply the teflon once per season.

That's pretty much what I did yesterday. Cleaned out the grooves with the tip of a file (with engine running), then coated with Boeshield T-9 Rust inhibitor...a favorite of mine.
