If you want to modify existing code, this one looks easy:

Wrap types in protover.rs
https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/24030


If you like FFI from Rust to C, here are some options:

Wrap our sha2 interface in Rust which implements the appropriate traits
https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/24659

Wrap our PRNG interface(s) in Rust with appropriate traits
https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/24660


If you like testing, and FFI from C to Rust, and want to get involved
with our C-based unit tests - try these after your first patch?

Test all rust functions' behavior when called from C with bad UTF8
https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/24029

consdiff implementation in Rust
https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/24609
(Most people's repositories are on git.torproject.org.)


And here are all the Rust tickets:
