				Plumbing materials 
				 
					Ideally, all the fittings would be copper. Considering the age of your FC, a previous owner may have taken a short cut and used galvanized fittings when replacing/repairing various components. 
				
				
				
			In a home I once lived in, copper plumbing was used, except the last few inches to the various fixtures were fitted with galvanized nipples and other fittings. When the house was 20-30 years old, those were really bad... and it was a lot of work to get them out, etc. The small economy involved at the time they were installed hardly seemed like a reasonable savings, but "lowest bidder" sometimes means shortcuts are taken.
