the house is plumbed with PEX.

It was inspected and passed. Copper takes a long time to corrode in an
alkaline environment like concrete. You don't plan to live in the
place. Why worry about it?

SOMEBODY is going to live in it. Sure he may be flipping it, but if he
has any ethics at all, he wouldn't do anything to it that he wouldn't do
to his own house.

Now I don't think that's a real concern; my house is 60+ years old and
the pipes in the basement are still OK. (fastened to cinder block in
some places.)
