Copying of code needs to be very direct. Even Google copied tens of thousands of lines of code from Oracle character for character and won the case taken all the way to the Supreme Court. When Oracle made changes (even during the court proceedings), Google kept copying the code and every change Oracle made. So I doubt you’re at real legal risk with what you were proposing.
