Our motorhome must have reached that age where things start to wear out. Earlier ths year the handle on the clean water drain tap broke off. No problem there - simply screw out the tap and fit a new one. However today I could't open the grey water tap. Exerting what I hoped would be sufficient force to do so caused the fitting to snap off where the tap screws into the drain pipe fitting, leaving the male thread stuck in there.

I have obtained a replacement tap fitting, but need to get the broken off male thread out of the female fitting before I can fit it. Can anybody suggest a simple way of removing the broken in thread without damaging the fitting on the pipe leading to the waste tank please? Many thanks.
