From the pics I think it was the plate!
At any point during this trip (or previous trips) did you have the right trailer tires up on boards to level, or the drivers side of the truck higher than the left trailer tires? To me it looks like the plate was at an angle and "peeled" the weld as the trailer pivoted on the ball side to side, not front to back. That is why it worse at the bottom of the frame, matches the truck being on an angle compared to the trailer being level.
Good luck!
