I have never encountered lead piping before and i have a few questions.
I need to relocate the sink i have but dont have a clue were to start. I know i need to replace the lead but how? Heres a few pictures of the mess i uncovered under the floor. And also does it look like the toilet drain pipe is lead?

All we can tell about it is that it is lead. The pictures do NOT show us what is connected to the lead, or where the lead goes. On the surface, it appears that you will have to remove a lot more flooring.

Hey, Nelson87, you are in need of a complete bathroom drain system, looks like. That lead has got to go - should've been
replaced thirty years ago. If you have no clue how to proceed, well, that's what PLUMBERS are for. Either that, or become
one yourself!

This is awkward, but...
