@kasdeya the metal piece is the bimetal strip for temperature control, which snaps when reaching 100 C, thus switching.
@kasdeya the connectors are crimped but plugged on top of the switch, you should be able to pull them out with gentle force

@kasdeya the rusty metal piece is probably the thing that turns off the machine.
Most likely bimetal part that snaps at the destination temperature.
This is hard to repair.
Maybe you can take it out and use some chemicals to clean it, but thats not in my comfort zone.
Maybe you can replace the switch whole?
You can for sure pull the connectorclamps off with tongs.
