When I have to connect copper to lead "D" I usually solder the copper to the lead or wipe a lead joint depending on the diameter

To connect copper to cast iron ,.... If there is a hub I caulk the copper directly into the CI with oakum and poured lead (molten) OR one can solder / braze a female adapter fitting and screw the copper into a CI female fitting
