Re: Oldest Boiler
The oldest that boiler could be is 1928, as is says “manufactured under one or more of the following u.s. patents” on the plate and references the (newest) date “July 31st 1928”. Still old!

Re: When to NOT use sharkbite? A question
@JayPoorJay Shark bites are made for your situation. The homeowner do-it-your-selfer.
I have found them to be a great transition fitting and have used them myself from time to time.
Simply follow the directions on how to install them.
The first thing I would do is install a couple of valves on the hot and cold lines to isolate this area from the rest of the house. 🤔😉

Re: Oldest Boiler
My brother lives in an old apartment building in Oakland. The building has two-pipe steam. Not very well maintained of course.

Re: Replace B&G 100 or use Taco 007 monoflo
The 007 isn't the best direct replacement for a B&G 100 in terms of flow rates, though it may be the best match for your system.
The 0010's curve is closest to the 100 and even exceeds flow just a bit. It may be overkill. I really can't tell from here, but these are the specs.
