Cost and time will dictate the fix...
Plastic or stainless....
Scd 40, or for permanent fix, stainless...

Is it the iron content of the water or breakdown of the pipe?
Had deposits like that in plastic piping from high iron content

Galvanizing in water pipes has a rated lifetime of 50 years. Replace with same and you won't have to worry about again.

Do you have issues with bats at your cabin? My folks have a cabin by Yellowstone and that is the biggst issue they have and can not get rid of them.
