It could be mainly plastic these days.  At least for the blades on the fan.

Okay. thanks. The screw does sound like its in direct contact with the fan blades. It seems to make a noise as though it's being tossed about while the unit runs and then when I turn it on or off, it sounds as though it's dragging on the accelerating or decelerating fan blades almost like a dead hampster would drag about on a revolving wheel. Sorry, lol, I'm not sure why I get that image in my head every time I hear it, but I do. The noise doesn't really bother me too much, it's mostly that I don't want to find out I have extensive corrosion after one summer of use.
