Yes, aluminum chloride is corrosive to stainless steel. It can cause pitting and corrosion of the stainless steel surface when they come into contact. It is recommended to avoid using aluminum chloride in contact with stainless steel to prevent corrosion.

No. If it minor pitting, honing the cylinder may be enough. If it is deep, it will need to be bored and an oversize piston used or the cylinder can be sleeved.
The life span of stainless steel depends on the type of stainless steel, the environment it is located, and the surface treatment. There is micro-pitting that will occur with out effecting the structural integrity of the steel but will tarnish the 'stainless' appearance. If the environment is free of heavy moisture and corrosive chemicals 316 stainless steel will last 1200 years with out significant decay.

Phosphoric acid can decrease the corrosion resistance of stainless steel by promoting the formation of localized corrosion, such as pitting and crevice corrosion. This is due to the acid's ability to break down the protective passive film on the stainless steel surface, making it more susceptible to corrosion.
Chlorine can cause corrosion in stainless steel, particularly in the presence of moisture and at elevated temperatures. It can lead to pitting and crevice corrosion, which compromise the material's integrity. The extent of damage depends on the stainless steel grade, environmental conditions, and chlorine concentration. To mitigate these effects, selecting appropriate stainless steel grades and employing protective coatings or inhibitors is essential.
Stainless steel is generally resistant to corrosion and does not react significantly with acidic substances like lemon juice. However, prolonged exposure to highly acidic solutions can potentially lead to surface damage or pitting in certain types of stainless steel. It's best to rinse and dry stainless steel items after contact with lemon juice to maintain their appearance and integrity.
Dental fluorosis is a condition that results from the overconsumption of fluoride during teeth development, leading to discoloration and pitting of the teeth.
Iron, Chromium, Nickel, Steel, Nitrogen, and Molybdenum Iron is the main element of stainless steel, Chromium is a metal that stalls the oxidization of iron. Nickel increases the corrosive resistance further and can protect stainless steel from rough usage and harsh environmental conditions. Pitting or scarring is avoided by adding molybdenum to steel.
Pitting corrosion generally happens in an oxygen deficient environment where the metal is surrounded by an ionic solution with chloride, bromide, or fluoride ions. A scratch in the metal under these conditions does not allow the metal [such as stainless steel] to reform the thin oxide layer which would normally protect the surface.
