I have a leaking drain pipe behind the foundation. I'm wondering if I can cut the floor joist enough to get some pipe repair tape around this. I'm attaching pictures.

That old steel pipe needs to be replaced with PVC not repaired.
At some point it always leaks and plugs up from the inside out.

Then what is this pipe draining?
What"s the other end attached to inside?
Trying to figure out if this is suppost to be a drain how is water running up hill from inside the house?
