Hi everyone!
My curiosity brought me to have a look inside the SE 240 radiator (https://www.ekwb.com/shop/ek-coolstream-se-240-slim-dual-5020) inlet and shine a flashlight in it.
Now to me it looks like the water pipes are absolutely not copper. It looks perfectly like aluminum even though it says it should be copper and EKWB answered in an email that it is copper.
Well I'm not. The rest of my loop is nickel and I'm skeptical of copper looking perfectly like alu due to "discoloration".
Does anyone have any ideas/infos or have the same rad?

According to it, that metal part in the radiator is not ALU or Zinc, but it's only the discoloration from the manufacturing process (Copper) and it's perfectly safe to use it with a Copper loop.
You should be calm now.
