Bob : the use of exh. tubing is quite common and I do use it. Contrary to 
Mr. "Me Too", the additional additive of "aluminizing and galvanizing" is to 
"retard" rusting and corrosion; besides , I think most (or all) anti-freeze 
solutions incorporate "anti-rust/corrosion" additives. Believe it would last 
for many years. Also, Regular exhaust systems do have some water vaper/(some 
liquid); and acidic, by-products of combustion. Won't get into a stainless 
steel "debate"----here !!??    Dewey
