Thank you for any help.

I use copper with soldered elbows where the pipes turn to come out of the
wall, or plastic with a compression elbow. In either case test for
water-tightness before plastering and tiling in (obviously)

Then you should rip it out. You DO NOT put copper inside a plastered wall.
The copper must be protected. This is the problem when amateurs give
advice - the wrong advice.
