Best Answer

yes it can. kerosene lead melters were used by plumbers for many years. sewer drain lines were made of cast iron. one end of the pipe was a about half an inch larger than the od of the pipe. you put the pipe into the flared end of the next pipe and packed oakum down into the gap between them with a chisel leaving about half an inch from the top. then you poured molten lead in to fill up the rest of the space and used a special chisel and a hammer to drive the lead down on to the oakum and finish the seal. nowadays they use pvc pipe and glue. which is a whole lot easier.
