Grey is know as ducting, its the cheapest and weakest, usually used for carring underground cable but has been used for storm water run off.
Orange is the sewer pipe, same strength as the black ducting but with rubber gaskets on the connection to seal in liquid and gases.
The black pipe (I presume its the ones with the rings) is reinforced piping and its the strongest, its used under roadways etc
