It is cast iron, and I also suspected it was leaking in the cavity, as
the wall where it enters the ground is thoroughly soaked.
I've just sent off an email to the owner (in California), to see how
they want me to proceed, i told them I cannot do a thing until I have
pulled down the ceiling to inspect the pipework.
Thanks for the thoughts.

Did you take some pictures of it?


No, I should have done, as the fungus growth was quite spectacular - a
bit like a lump of 6 inch by 1 inch evostick.
If I get called back there, i'll do the pics first.
