Get back a protection against corrosion on carburetor mount

Hi !
I made a mistake when cleaning my carburetors last year : they were really dirty, and I might have been a little bit agressive with the products I used to clean all the grease on the outside :oops:
I think I destroyed the protective layer of some parts, because now they rust really easily.

Those parts are all the parts that have some kind of yellow tint, you can see it on Radare's pictures :

The thing is... Now mine are just silvery, the yellow tint was gone after my cleaning, and I can't stop the rust from growing since, so I gess that was some kind of layer to protects against rust.
The parts that are affected are the one that holds the carburetors together, and the parts for the enrichment (including the rod)

I'd like your advice on how could I get back a protection to prevent those parts from rusting, do you have any idea ?
Thank you :)
