Re: Natural Gas Line to BBQ
That does not look like a brass connector, and using other-than-brass (steel?) for gas is not real smart.
The tubing near that fitting is pretty well whacked up already. However, when I zoom in on the tubing right next to the right side of that connector, that whacked up tubing appears to be a 'protective sleeve' over what looks like copper tubing inside the sleeve. Is that connector brass and just has corrosion over it making it look like it is not brass?
In the photo with at entire roll of tape around it ... I suspect that outer sleeve was whacked up even worse than it is down by that fitting and the roll of tape is simply 'providing protection' from future whacking at it.
As to what the material is, either the outer sleeve or the inner tubing, and whether or not it is approved for use exposed outdoors - I do not know.
As to whether or not it is allowed to be buried in the ground, possibly, but without knowing what it is, I'll have to let Ted go with his 'No it is not.' because at least he has seen it before and I have not, not that I am aware of, anyway.
