The innards of a plumbing wall

The innards of a plumbing wall

Jeff had opened the wall for replumbing, previously, when he was putting the plumbing overhead to replace the underslab pipes that had already leaked at least once. He had replaced the wallboard temporarily, but now that we were remodeling he office he wanted to finish off all the plumbing and close the wall for good. He knew there was a crack in the vent stack pipe for the tub drain (far right in picture), which he had discovered during the replumbing, but hadn't repaired yet. Since it was just a vent stack and not an actual drain pipe, his plan was to put a rubber sleeve over the crack and clamp it in place, easy fix.
