From what I've heard is the resin in pb starts to break down around the 140f mark. This is why you always look at the hot water lines. Also the plastic fittings are crap. Even the brass and copper ones can fail if the conditions are right(mosty rural)

A very good way to eat away that brick

M is your basic piping for almost anything water except recirc lines which should be type l. Type l is also used for refrigeration as long as its acr grade. Type k is used for gas line service. All can be soft or hard drawn dependent on what you need it for and ease of install. If you looking for water piping spend the extra and get type l. Will always last longer. And don't forget type l fittings and long sweep elbows. Will last a lot longer as well.
