Anyone every hear of a compressor exploding? I've seen tanks rust
through and leak, but never anything more eventful than that.

I've seen the end result. Some ME's at our University do
accident investigations on the side, and I saw a blown
compressor in their truck once. The tank was unrolled and
almost perfectly flat. This was a little roll-around 2 Hp or so
unit. Generally, if they were investigating, there were fatalities.
