From MDW: Never heard of "medical grade" scrap metal before. Definitely agree about the valves. That valve off the old condemned tank will work just fine on the shiny new tank you buy to replace it. No need to pay an extra 50 bucks for a new valve.

At that point the valve will at least need a rebuild. I still would not throw it out, as a rebuilt is less than half the price of a new valve.
