We are finally getting around to pulling up the bathroom subfloor here, all 4 kids have flooded that room more times than I can count, and the floor has gone spongy. New to this whole world of ripping out floors, been dreaming of doing this bathroom for years, and it finally got to the "we need to do this sooner than later point"

The middle of the trailer under the floor would appear to have about a 1/4" to maybe up to 1/2" of dryer lint. It doesn't go all the way to the outside wall, from the outside wall to where it starts is roughly 3-3.5 feet. Our dryer is flush with an interior wall...and getting that vented outside through the skirting is now on the extremely high priority list lol
My question is what do I do? I know lint is scary fire hazard, thats what we've all had drilled in our brains, I'm a bit apprehensive to continue sawing in there if I hit metal and a spark manages to land in it, I know fire and trailers are scary as hell, especially after seeing my neighbors go up last April...

How potentially dangerous is this?
I vacuumed a bunch off the pipes and wires...not sure how to take it off the insulation, and it appears it may go further into the house than the bathroom...
Other question I had, less scary in my mind, discovered that the heating duct to the master bedroom from the bathroom is a clear plastic tube with the metal spiral wire...stuffed full with insulation. Its pink, so its not for the dryer. Is that normal?...seemed really weird to me.
Thank you all in advance!
