When you say ductwork, is that ½” between pipe and insulation or actual sheet metal?

There is a 6” main that is about 1/2” from the ductwork. Of course, the inspectors response is “it’s in the code book” when asking for a reference that mandates clearance to hvac ductwork. Has anyone run into something similar? Note: this is not a high temp duct that would cause for enough heat to convert the sprinkler water to steam. This is just your standard, run of the mill, HVAC system.
