Broken Gray Water Pipe

Driving I ran over something and broke off my gray water pipe and valve from the tank to the 1 1/2” release valve. I’m replacing the release valve (gone) and my question is the fitting from the tank is 3”. Can you buy a fitting that is 3” on one side and 1 1/2” on the other side so my ABM pipe will be 1 1/2” to the release valve?

You may need two fittings to make the transition: 3” to 2”, and 2” to 1.5”.

How about this 3" X 1 1/2" Fernco fitting from Home Depot? These are very high quality and fix lots of problem connections.

Those Fernco fittings work great and quick. I had to use one on my cross country trip a few years back... Bought the fitting in Home Depot and fixed the break in the parking lot in a jiffy!
