The whole pipe is steel (not the plastic ones that they use for water) and from the location it looks like its feeding into the gas meter outside my house.

So a few questions about this issue; Should I be concerned about a what looks to be a fairly major rusting pipe (potentially carrying gas)? Is there a chance of a leak? since the one year warranty is up I assume the builder is no longer responsible for this? So what companies would I call to fix issues with gas lines like this? Enmax or something like that? Or some contractor?

Thanks guys!
Spoiler!
All new builds regardless of builder should be covered by New Home Warranty which is 5 years. The builder is responsible.
