Toilet flange on a tile floor

[jpmthird]

Should a toilet flange be installed on the subfloor and have the tile meet it or should tile be laid up to the lead bend and the toilet flange installed on top of the finished tile?

Your flange should be on top of your finished floor.

I would suggest removing the lead drain pipe and replacing it.
