As of now, I'm fixing just this section of the barn and not putting the water lines back. Just got done removing the sink. From what I can tell, yes, the other walls are insulated.

Welp... there is no vapor barrier in the walls. Metal exterior, air gap, then frame with some insulation in between the posts. I know there is a vapor barrier at least in the ceiling because I can see in the attic. As of right now, I wont be fixing it right this second as it is 10 deg...

I will be removing the pipes. It will just be a workbench and the wall. It's actually not bad but I'm all for making it better. I'll get better pics once I get the counter top and sink out this weekend

Just curious what the final setup looks like for the OP. I'm wanting to set something up before the next winter so i can work on my cars while not freezing.

Lift is in.

Update: I installed an Advantage HD9000. It's awesome. Thanks for the advice.

Joy... well, I'll need to figure what size to get, but for now that will have to do. Thanks everyone.

I tried the fastener that I have. Good?

I don't have a large fastener, but is Henry sealant good? https://www.homedepot.com/p/Henry-209XR-Extreme-Rubberized-Wet-Patch-Roof-Leak-Repair-Sealant-Caulk-10-1-fl-oz-HE209004/100001308
