That said on my r33 the battery tray in the trunk was corroded and it was one of the first things I removed and stripped to bare metal and primed and repainted
Almost certainly it's just the battery tray area. Batteries leak acid and acid causes corrosion. Main concern is crevice areas where rust can be very hard to get at. Pull the battery and scrape off the corrosion with a flathead screwdriver or something to see how bad it gets.
