Potential for carbon monoxicide leakage or fire is RED TAG period end of story.
I have seen people get red tagged for bad igniters, I have seen people call because of a water heater issue and get the furnace red tagged; I have seen vice versa.
If you change the water heater you have to change anything attached to it that is not compliant with current code.
