frame/fork slightly bent...

on the front of the fork on this old road bike, there are two rusty spots about the size of a nickel, right under the crowns... could this indicate that the bike has been in a front end collision, bending the fork, and causing the paint there to crack + subsequently rust? i can't really think of any other explanation. there is also a lot of toe overlap, which would seem to back this idea up, but it is also a 52cm frame with 27" wheels and knobby tires. if it is bent, it isn't really visible, so would it even matter(besides the toe overlap)?
