That type of foam used in the cases, that you've shown in your pictures, will start to break down over time. Usually will start to flake apart. But, if you have any oils on your firearms (after cleaning you give them a light oil) the oil will seep into the foam and over time the foam will turn into a sticky gooey mess that will start to eat your metal.
*MANY Auto Mag's that were stored in their original cases with that type of foam have been pitted horribly bad. And they are made out of stainless.
I just found this picture.... zoom in and notice the pitting all over the right side....

That's the kind of offense that can drive someone to carry out a...."Deathwish".
