Don't worry about it just lube it and go for a ride and have fun. Next time use WD-40. The rust will not hurt the chain, it might look bad but no harm done. Go ride. If you don't want the chain send it to me and I will use it. This how I get most of my parts. People think that they are bad and give them away. After a little bit of riding it all look's the same.

You'll have to get a link remover and remove a pin from a link to take off the chain. I don't think link remover is the actual name, i just can't think of it now.

When my chain gets nasty, I wash the quad then wash the chain
with kerosene. Using a rag and going lightly over o-rings with
a toothbrush. Wash off the kerosene with water, spray it with wd-40 and let it sit overnight. Then spray your chain wax on.
My 2 cents.
