Boiler condensate pipe leaking at joint

[blueplanet]

Hello I have a condensate pipe that appears to be leaking at the joint.

How do I fix the leak? Would something like plumbers putty around the joint work or does it need to be some other compound? Can I simply pull the pipe and joint out and then put the compound round it

Thanks

Does the joint pull apart? Might not have been glued etc

It doesn't pull off. I checked for any splits but it is definitely coming out of the joint. I think its PVC cement that I need? Maybe just put it in as far as I can without taking it off. Any thoughts?

So you will need two coupling an elbow and a length of pipe in overflow and some solvent cement
