Does this cast iron drain fitting look rusted through to ya'll? The oxidation seems to be in a dripping shape, which suggests to me there's a leak and I should fix while I have the wall open during bathroom remodel.
If so, what's the proper repair? Cut out the iron fitting and replace with PVC/ABS fitting, reattaching to iron pipe with steel reinforced no-hub fittings? And use steel hangers to make sure the weight of the remaining iron vent pipe is supported from wood framing above?
Appreciate any pro tips you may have!
