My understanding is that under GOX or LOX flow within piping, anything organic will instantly combust, which will cause *any* metal plumbing next to it to also burn, which will instantly rupture the piping and cause a bad day. We have not yet attempted any use of LOX or GOX, although it's a clear favorite in terms of performance and cost, if you're willing to deal with cryogenic oxidizers.
