I think it is fine. You just need to scrub a little acid on that area to remove
the surface iron

Stus-List Forestay Stem Fitting / Chainplate - Update
<!-- P {margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0;} -->
So I polished the rusty area on my forestay fitting and it seems like a surface
corrosion as suggested. There are some blemishes but nothing like how it looked
before:

I also performed a dye test. Here is a picture with dye applied:

Here is after developer is applied:

I barely see a dotted line but it seems to be consistent with the blemishes on
the surface...
Any thoughts?
