Had a bit of the same problem with my Series I Disco.  It was not road
chemicals, I heard that what caused it was called "bimetallic
corrosion."

Aside- dunno about the new ones, but the earlier Range Rovers had a steel shell with aluminum outsides.  The earlier REAL Land-Rovers had sluminum/duralumin body, except for the cowl area.  Frame metal wasn't too thick, though.  Steel in the frame change somehow for the worse ~1962.
