    I'm not trying to be rude here, but do you guys really think I'm stupid enough to judge a metal buy its color? Of course I checked it with a magnet AND I took off the metal screws. (I could not get that piece of tubing off the first pic) When i took it into the yard, they checked it and took it as yellow brass, so I would assume it was brass. Again, not trying to be rude.

    So today I was finishing up tearing apart some stuff. One of the things was an old grill. I went to throw the burners in the stainless bin then I thought I have seen a picture of these before. Grabbed my grinder and hit the side of the burner - Yellow brass through and through. It's a first for me as well but I made triple the money on those burners just because I spent some time reading here. Thanks to the original poster for the heads up.
