Two coupling prob 3/4”. A foot of 3/4” pex. All bought from lowes. Cut out broke section and bend pex into place. The longer the pex the easier to bend and connect. Pretty sure shark bites will fit on Cooper, cpvc, and iron pipe as long as it is not to rusted. I know for a fact it won’t go over pvc.
This.

Shark bite is a specific fitting. If you go to a plumbing supply they will know what you are talking about. Also in order to use the pex you need the crimpers and crimp rings. The crimpers are the most expensive. Honeslty by the time you buy the material and tools you could have paid a decent plumber to come do it. I don’t know why it would have burst unless it’s very very shallow.
