Note that when I asked my question, I restricted myself to leadpipes, which I think are probably less sensitive to materials than the rest of the horn.

As far as corroding leadpipes, some seem to do it more than others and I don't think it's a matter of recycled-vs-fresh-from-the-smelter brass. Certainly, alloy has some bearing on corrosion resistance, but I would think that the differences between any two samples of C330 bras would be vanishingly small.
