    After you make that expensive repair and you still have the same problem, What will you check next?

    You may never find that fitting, but you can certainly make one with a couple of tee fittings and a pipe nipple.

    What is in the boiler—a female tapping or a welded pipe nipple?

    From what I can see here, you need to raise the circulator pump an inch or so to accommodate a 1-1/4" tee and a close nipple to a circulator flange.

    On the third opening of the tee, you can add the 1/2" copper pipe and the drain valve using a bushing and a 1/2" tee fitting.

    if that is just a nipple and some fittings threaded in the bottom i might try cutting out and replacing that first and see if resealing that fixes the problem.
