oxygen butane cutting

will an acetylene regulator work for butane oxygen cutting. I used
butane a long time ago to cut metal but I don't remember if I used a
acetylene regulator or just a butane regulator. I know I had to use a
different tip on the torch

It will work just fine. The tips are a bit wrong.
You say butane - tiny bottle or the big ones outside ? They are likely Propane now as the cold season since butane will liquefy.
I have a propane Oxy rig.
