Hello! Can you please advise me how can I fix it. When we were fixing licking sink pipes we broke the one which was connected to main pipe behind the wall. It was going in the hole on the bottom of the 1st picture.
And you can see inside of the hole and broken spot. I know it is very bad design and job. 20190328_205502.jpg 20190328_205717.jpg
We are very short on money now, so in order to be able to use the sink for another 1,5 month until money arrives, we were thinking of buying one flexible pipe, connect it to sink pipes and insert it to the hole after broken pipe and seal it with silicon or something. Any suggestion? Please help.
 
DAMNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN

I suggest you route a pipe to a 5 gallon bucket
instead of silicone the broken pipe

as for fixing
You will need to chip the concrete away form the broken pipe
all the way around. and uncover 6'' either side of the hub of the fitting

after you have exposed the broken fitting
post back with a picture we will get it fixed as cheaply as possible and while doing it correctly

the concrete chipping you can do with a hammer and chisel
 
If that is a dishwasher on the left you should rotate the fitting on the manifold 180 degrees and loop the dishwasher discharge hose higher than the drain and hang it up as high as you can get it. The way it is now water is draining into the dishwasher.
 
What in the wild wide world of sports is going on there. Follow what Frodo says to fix it and then runaway from that place. What are those red and blue corrugated plastic pipes, the hot and cold water.
 
What in the world!! Why on earth would anyone do this when a center on end out would work better and look MUCH BETTER!!!
 
Ok... you can continue discussion about strange plumbing methods around the world ... I fixed my plumbing the way I mentioned in topic. Thanks for no help from plumbing forum. Good bye
 
Why did you get butt hurt?

Frodo told you the correct fix.

The remaining comments are because of the strange plumbing ideas from other countries, who obviously do not have codes to make sure some hack is not trying to make your life miserable.
