Clunker 10 speed chain?

No, I do not mean modern Campy 10, I mean old, clunky Ross 10 speed
(with stem mounted shifters). I've got a friend who has let his chain
become a hunk of rusted mass. Am I mistaken, or will a 1/2 x 1/8
chain work here?

No. You need 1/2 x 3/32 chain with plain ol' flat side plates. KMC
makes some and sells it for the same cheap price as the 1/8" stuff.

Full width (7.8mm) 1/2 x 3/32 chain. It's cheap and readily available.

1/8 chain doesn't move sideways well enough, probably won't clear the
derailleur cage and likely will not mesh fully, hitting the next sprocket.

Nope.
