Sewer hose adapter
My 86 Sovereign dump fitting is larger than the standard used today. I just broke my adapter coupling and am having trouble finding another. Full tank, help!

Are you at a campground that offers a “honey wagon” service? If so, they may have several adapters to help you out. If not, google/yellow page a local honey wagon company. Likely worth whatever it costs to pump you out! Good luck!

You camper likely has a Thetford adapter. Mine does.

I recently sawed off the original Thetford bayonet (the old larger size) then glued on a new standard 3". It's not a hard job, if the waste pipe is long enough to leave a couple inches outside the trailer.
The other option would be an adapter, a Valterra T05-2285VP.

I broke one while in Newfoundland. Cost $15 for the part, $75 for the shipping, and then it came a day late and I had to make a 350 k round trip back to the previous campground to get it.
I have since replaced my Tetford on the trailer with a Valtera. If you do not want to hacksaw the one on the trailer you can use the coupler AW showed above and just silicone seal it to the Tetford that is on the trailer.

If you want to stay original the Thetford part number is 01665.
It cost ~3 times more than what a Valterra costs.
