No point painting copper pipes

Exactly. Fitted many a pipe and never once painted them. I've greased old pipes to hide rust bit that's a different storey

This. I'm pretty sure new popes = new bolts

Yep. Got to fit new flare nuts when you make the new pipe up.

Hopefully before you flare the ends !

Been there. Done that.

Sorry. Looks like nothing has been touched.
Edit: the bottom pic looks like it's been joined but again not recently.
