Is it the piece of cable in a kind of cloth tubing? Could be the 'fusible link' in the main ignition wiring - if that goe's don't expect the Disco to go!
They usually do corrode, best thing is to cut out the worst (if not all) of the corrosion and solder it back together and probably heat-shrink sleeve it.

It sounds like it's possibly after-market, probably had some spot lights on the front at some point or something like that.
Have you traced the cabling?
