If the crossmember in front of the seats is black, it's a coated chassis. If the crossmember is silvery-gold with a vague pattern, its galvanised.
With either, the vulnerable places are where the chassis is drilled to take various parts, because the bare steel edge will rust when they get wet.
Either type needs watching over time, but I don't think its a big issue.
