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

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?

It looks better, certainly less menacing than before, but I would work it to a 
mirror shine.  The crack can be hard to see with the scratch lines but very 
easy to see when it is mirror smooth.  At least get a swirl pattern or lines 
that run perpendicular to the "crack".  You're so much closer to a satisfactory 
answer it only makes sense to get it that little extra bit.   You are wet 
sanding right?

What you will see in a die-penatrent of a full blown crack is a solid line, as 
obossed to the corrision pitting seen in this case. It will be very obvious.

Google "dye penetrant crack" and go to images.  There are many examples of 
actual cracks revealed by dye checks.

The polished chain plate did not show evidence of a serious crack.
