After you make that expensive repair and you still have the same problem, What will you check next?

    Pipe Organ Hydronics, or a basement radiator.
    Got to appreciate the workmanship.
    Was the concrete block a temp support?

    Meh, the horizontals don't line up. He should turn in his OCD card for that embarrassment.

    Well considering there's 14 on the left and 8 on the right, how would they line up?

    And I thought we were somewhat OCD when we line up our pipe nipples by length on the job, and call it "organ piping"............

    That's a lot of work! For what advantage?

    Interesting that the top two outlets on the left serve fixtures (water heater and perhaps a boiler) on the right hand side.
