As long as the wood isn't weak and rotten you'll be fine. Also if you had the slightest leak the roof would have swollen. Just make it doesn't leak moving forward. I think your fine. My TT is 1 year old. Never a leak and un-painted metal such as screws in the rest room are starting to show rust. The roof screws that hold the shower curton (sp) were not painted and those show rust too.
It is not just the exposed heads of unpainted screws, it is also the imbedded thread portions, as the moisture has moved thru the foam. That's what leads me to believe a significant degree of humidity / condensate is moving thru the exposed sandwich sections.
We have had a couple of days of bad weather here and still don't feel any external water but as soon as its warm enough, I will re-"dicor" the outside and perhaps try eternabond the inside in some form.
