would the A516 be more prone to corrosion than the A515 if both were used to store liquids that had a pH of 3.8 - 4.1?

Some of the steels made 40+ years ago had more residual tramp elements that provided greater corrosion resistance than some of the "cleaner" steels made today.

You need to take samples and have some good analysis done.
