The red and white look like PEX.

The home was built in 1917, and is a limestone rock and beam type foundation.
I can tell the grey pipe is PB, but was not sure about the other stuf, and the large yellow line is a gas line. For the sake of there being PB, I am going to rec a plumber to come look at it, and give an opinion, it's all dry however, with no leaks to be found.
