If the pipe is black it is likely abs, if it is dark grey probably sch 80 pvc. What was it used for? If it was a pressure pipe it should not be abs.
Thos close fixes can be a pain.

Looks like abs in a corrugated sleeve to me.
It is a thick wall 2 inch pipe inside a conduit. I am wondering how to join? Not sure if abs or pvc or what.

Those pipe ends look like they may have had a clamp on them. If that's true, you could likely do the same. Do you still have the tee you removed?
Take what was cut out to a supply house to ID it and possibly get some ideas what to use to join those ends.

Looks kind of like the coil-able black plastic . Which would jive , if the old fitting had clamps .

if that "clampable" black plastic pipe, it is PE right ?? (polyethylene)
That is hdpe. Get 2 brass couplings and 8 hose clamps. 2 hose clamps per joint. Orient the clamps so they tighten 180 degrees from each other.
