Are you sure it's corrosion or could it be burn marks ?
Check your GPU power connector pins .
As for the GPU being faulty it's hard to say as there many cases of the connector/cable melting.

Double check this. If you're not sure you could always post a (clear, good quality) picture here for critique.
When you get your new PSU, make sure that 12VHPWR is well & truly seated properly.
