Does anybody know if the brass on Roxy Music's "Street Life" is mellotron brass?

I think the brass is McKay playing Sax. Eddie Jobson used an M400 in
the studio and live back then. On "Street Life" it sounds like
mellotron flutes to me.

Thanks Clay, I can't hear any flutes on the studio version and the bit I am thinking of is a series of chords between the verses, I suppose they could be multitracked sax.
