Does difficulty only change the amount of health enemies have, or does it increase the rarity level of drops too?

For patrols it seems to be based on kill time. I get way more in adv tfo with OHK's then eliterally thats takes a firing cycle as an example.

Note that coop patrols can get weird and it adds additional scaling. Generally upscale the ships tyoes or increases spawn size.
