Not intending to rain on your parade, I see a couple of issues from a safety standpoint.
1. The thread connections need to be done with yellow thread tape. The white tape is for air/water and will eventually break down and possibly cause leaks, not acceptable with propane.
2. Unless the photo does not show it, there is no shut-off on the female QC. These do leak. The better ones have an integrated ball valve shut off that require it to be closed before you can connect or disconnect a hose, again, to prevent a dangerous gas leak.
3. Again, I can't tell from the photo, but QC fittings are made specifically for high and low pressure systems. The only way to tall is to look at the manufacturers name and part number on the body of the coupling.
4. As far as using a galvanized T, all of the gas plumbing I have ever seen was done with black pipe or copper tubing. I've never used galvanized, so I can't comment on it other than I've never seen it used and never personally used it, but there must be a reason why, possibly because the zinc coating can eventually flake off and create a leak while the threads on black pipe are bare metal and there's noting on them to deteriorate.
